Huh?
to be fair though, getting a 1000+ upvote post on Lemmy feels like whatever drug Musk is on constantly
There’s no way everyone on Lemmy has voted on your post twice!
oh, i mean, i don’t personally know the feeling. i am just looking at my 500ish upvote post and sighing wistfully
The trick is to post more Linux stuff, Lemmings love their Linux.
I heard someone mentioned Linux…
This is a joke guys, don’t do this.
Add some anti-capitalist rhetoric and you’re cooking
If you can find Linux-themed can of beans being produced by an employee-owned cooperative organisation then I think you might hit the jackpot
Edit: wow this really blew up! Thanks for the gold kind stranger
I’m broke but I would give you gold if I could!
i think user total upvotes/downvotes is public, so people can check it out if that’s their thing
I was told by an admin that admins can see what everyone upvotes and downvotes and that they’re going to give mods that access in the future.
@pelespirit Because Lemmy is federated, your upvotes and downvotes are also sent to different platforms, which may display them.
How long until people get banned from various communities for voting on something unrelated?
Now
Happens already. Auk on slrpnk instance has a bot that counts your upvotes/downvotes. And auto bans u based on the counts. Even if you’ve never been to his community
Karma-farming on Lemmy makes basically no sense because it doesn’t even natively report it. I installed a Firefox add-on that tabulates it but it’s slow and clunky. Functionally no one sees a user’s karma.
I honestly think it’s kinda lame since you can’t see who is just being a troll. That said, there’s only like 15 or so people on here so it’s not that big a deal as you pretty quickly learn who people are and can just block them or whatever. lol
I also never thought it was a big deal on reddit!; never understood why the people that “didn’t care” about karma seemed to care so much about others having it.
I hand out up votes like candy because engagement is how we’re going to get new users and kill the other site. I’d rather people karma farm here than by putting money in the pockets of the ultra-rich tbh
Here have a downvote. Enough of those and you get censored so lemmy can become an echo chamber by censoring anything unpopular, eg someone liking a bad movie.
Trust, lemmys already kind of an echo chamber, but it’s our echo chamber so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Linux Propaganda Machine
(I mean its true, y’all know it)
You’re right, the Linux propaganda is true
