I dont mind piefeds version since its only negative for ppl getting primarily downvotes, there isnt a boost for high upvotes

It encourages shitposting, high karma almost always was related to memes, not being helpful
Its not like the alternative reddit is any better at least here someone could design a free app to do it, while reddit you gotta pay to access the api to delete all your posts/comments
They abstrakted nothing, its centralized af
power users like ghislaine maxwell will never not be wild to me
At least yall dont literally legally own my whole ass identity while im on lemmy
I got you guys, lets start with daily standup to get everyone on the same page.
I pay 7$ monthly for 8 core 16gb ram littlecreek, yunohost for free, installed lemmy on it, works solid, use like 10% of the resources with friendica also on the server lol That site looks insanely expensive monthly.
wdym hes on programming.dev
If you can find the original post try to crosspost it so ppl can see the original thread and get context
I only thought it would be an issue my first week of Lemmy, using it for a month now I really like the smaller community.
Think it was changed to include upvotes/downvotes. Could be wrong, saw it on a similar thread.
Like, they’ll answer everything but your question, tell you how you’re wrong and should do something else entirely, here they read your question all the way and actually answer it
You know how on reddit people comment to tell you to google, argue, etc. Here they just answer the question or move on, it’s wonderful.
Suprisingly better for actual conversation, reddit would be like screaming into a void sometimes, any topic you’re interested in if it doesn’t already have a community, make one from a popular general purpose instance and start posting, people will reply and see it, and it’ll potentially hit the front page equivalent letting more eyes see it. Reddit was no longer showing me interesting niches, I had to already know about it to find a sub and get it on my feed, so many interesting subs I only learned about because I got into the hobby outside of reddit have more potential to be visible on the main feed here. Reddit algorithm right now is a roller coaster, this feels more like reading a newsletter, old reddit.
If you want to be unique start using friendica lmao
Every negative change came with some good, like oh they banned some free speech but they also got rid of jailbait/creepshots so good? Except one of those should.ve never been there for so long and on the front page in the first place. It’s like they sneak in the terrible decisions they want to make with the obvious ones that should’ve been made long ago.
I always thought Reddit was an exception and I wouldve drode it forever if they didn’t auto perm ban me “ban evasion,” and deny my appeals. I just believed there was no other option and had been arguing there for 15 years and didn’t want to leave lol. Sure like 25% of my comments and 50% of my posts would get removed for not following some arbitrary rules perfectly, but it just felt like the tradeoff of a big forum. (At least here when mods only can post it’s clear, on reddit you could drop a post for a game release and get it removed so a mod can post it)
Gotta start making them and posting just to get the ball rolling a little, you can always turn over moderating if someone wants it. I need to take my own advice when I’m bored.
People getting massdownvoted here to the point of having negative overall rep tend to be an issue
