Then down vote it? Isn't that the point of that button? I'm assuming a big problem with Reddit was they wanted controversial posts seen which took away from the power of down voting but hopefully Lemmy doesn't? I don't actually know though
Ahhh, the rallying cry of "just downvote it". I'd insert the "this your first time?" gif here if I could. Leaving a community to self moderate invariably turns into a popularity contest, and then when one group eventually takes over, an echo chamber usually filled with the same regurgitated spam. "If you don't like it just downvote it" or it's reverse "well it has a lot of upvotes, so someone must like it"(welcome to why we have so many bots today....) always ends up catering to the terminally online at the detriment of the average person. People far too often will speak with absolute confidence about things they have never even experienced, but because it's well formatted, it's sent to the top. The Gell-Mann Amnesia effect describes this in part.
Kinda like the guy that was posting daily screenshots of his gaming sessions that spawned like, three copycats this past summer?
I like all of it.
I've enabled option that won't show read posts, cool thing actually
There's stuff I wouldn't see otherwise because I'm not on other networks. I'm fine with bringing stuff here from elsewhere.
Moderation is a necessary evil. Otherwise everything becomes /r/Funny with different decor.
Maybe you could offer them buyouts
Buddy if I ever posted anything I wouldn't be here
