Yea the internet definitely has taken that trend to the extreme in recent years, especially with businesses which don’t make their own websites anymore and host their social media on platforms like Facebook; of course along with individual communities slowly being herded into the corporate mega forum that is Reddit. Definitely not healthy to have all our human interaction/information controlled by these entities especially as we move into the age of artificial intelligence.

Yea there were already earlier reports of this so no surprise here. Imagine not only dying for a useless war, but your government covers up your death and countless others to avoid paying your family some scraps of useless rubles.

Especially considering another instance will just make a new one in order to popularize it instead, even if it’s not .world which is shaping up to be the “main” instance

I don’t think it’s the content — there’s already Reddit reposting bots available. It’s the lack of comments which makes Lemmy feel more lonely/less active. I wonder what the average non-bot comment count is for most posts on r/all

Hate to break it to ya but that’s just your UI from whatever app you’re using; you definitely have a “karma” score / upvote score, currently at 47 comment upvotes total.

As long as your instance is federated with other instances you should be able to upvote/downvote/interact with any other instance’s comments, posts, etc.

You probably were trying to do so with a beehaw.org instance which was recently defederated from most other Lemmy instances

I didn’t know that was a thing, I got wefwef yesterday so that might’ve been before the cutoff

Can someone TLDR the LGBT case? I heard something about legal business discrimination but that’s all I know.

Hey, go to https://github.com/gkasdorf/memmy and scroll down until you see:

“TestFlight Builds

You can now download and run Memmy on your iOS device by using TestFlight. To join the beta group and start doom scrolling, click here and join the group. Please submit feedback either by…”

Then you click on the hyperlink in that paragraph and follow the directions from TestBuild from there.

Yeah wefwef is a near perfect recreation (atleast for all the things I used to do personally), with only occasional freezes when scrolling.

It could probably use a name change to be more marketable though too.

Yea it’s definitely not intrinsically bad and is a good way for 99% of communities to gauge a post’s quality.

Random comment arguments where feelings get hurt over downvoted does not mean the upvote/downvote system is bad.

I want to see high upvoted posts on my feed, not the 90% garbage of new posts based on Reddit experience.
