Oh come on you don’t need to downvote me for that. I’m not a professional on a computer, I’m a disabled bedridden person who is unable to use computers. Just let me exist please.
Nor am I a native english speaker :)
Edit: Lmao this guy went and downvoted every single one of my recent comments because of this.
Well, now I'm gonna downvote you ...
Vote manipulation always deserves downvotes if the mods don't take more appropriate action.
Nobody needs more mod action, especially on stuff like this. Perhaps on CP or bots, but not really here.
You want lemmy to turn into Reddit and have a super power mod max perma ban you because you didn't follow rule 54038 of the side bar, but actually it was because the mod didn't like you and was having a bad day ?
Me personally I'd prefer someone salty downvoting every post and lose meaningless internet points than having mods riding everyone, increasing the likelihood of runaway abusive mods. The perfect is the enemy of the good enough.
Been there, and I hear ya
Spoken like someone who truly does not understand that mods are also, in fact, people.
People with a responsibility
It's not that i disregard the fact that they're people. I simply believe people in positions of authority and executive action in society, wherever it may be, must be held to a higher standard of conduct and be audited by people other than their friends.
