Comment on Just blocked hexbear
Cowbee@lemmy.ml 1 week agoOh wow! I always wondered if my comments actually get people to check out the pages and books I link, I’ve tried to focus more on explaining things in my own words unless a book or article is extremely relevant and quotes necessary (people sometimes saw my older style of quoting Marx, Lenin, Engels, etc as book worship, which is fair critique IMO).
That’s actually really interesting!

Yea, we’ll see in the future. Right now it was just bots, so I assume the post got federated to these websites and then they went out to get title, description, and opengraph stuff to show.

Ah, gotcha, that makes sense. Federation is interesting.

It’s funny that people are downvoting your completely unrelated non-political comments as well.

It happens, lol. Karma doesn’t really get tracked on Lemmy so it doesn’t even really matter much, but some people get personal grudges if you dare speak positively about communism.
