It also helps to use Piefed and create custom feeds for different interests, e.g. https://piefed.social/f/blaze_android or https://piefed.social/f/blaze_privacy
Wow, piefed is looking better every day
I wish that when people disagree with a comment or post, they would give a brief explanation for their disagreement instead of just downvoting.
I disagree that people should always leave a comment as that is going to both cause more arguments over small details and if there are many downvotes then it is going to basically spam their inbox.
Sometimes it is nice if one of the downvoters explained if it wasn’t obvious, but sometimes the comment is just so bad that explaining is worse than a bunch of silent downvotes.
Nothing was said about requiring it, but I agree that it’s a bit annoying when there’s downvotes without anyone justifying even a single one of them.
The downvotes also clearly seem to mean different things to different people.
Generally I think they’re just used for spam, extreme racism/homophobia etc, cruelty, bullying, or offensive content - but some people are clearly just chucking them around willy-nilly for very little reason.
People having reasons that don’t align with yours doesn’t make them willy-nilly.
Sorry I wasn’t clear, I mean that some people (I assume) use downvotes just to mean “I don’t agree with the thing you said” rather than “this is extremely offensive/cruel/horrifically bigoted/spreading dangerous misinformation” etc - even on something really minor like “I prefer this tv programme to that one” or “I like this foodstuff made in this way”.
If something is extremely offensive/cruel/bigoted/etc, it probably needs to be reported and not just downvoted… Unless it’s some community for hateposting, that kind of stuff is almost always straight up against the community rules.
I was just thinking to myself it’s been so good around here, YPTB has barely had any activity for weeks.
I’ve had a couple cases I could’ve presented there, but it just wasn’t worth it to me to take the time to gather the evidence and write out my case. There’s good reason I’m neither a lawyer, nor a politician.
I haven’t seen a negative post in months.
You just haven’t said anything that they consider the ‘wrong thing’ to say. That’s all.
Trust me, once you do, you’ll know.
Ah yeah sure enough. “Hur hur, they mention downvote so we downvote hruhur!”
Please elaborate I’m out of the loop
