I saw the joke on Sickipedia.net circa 2010, maybe it should have stayed there.

Sometimes, there are downsides to being on an instance that disables downvotes.

wait, blahaj disallows downvotes? why’s that
kautau@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Probably the same thing that YouTube did where they hid dislikes because they “inspired negativity” or whatever when generally downvotes on Lemmy are “damn that’s a really shit take and most people think so, do better.”
EldritchFeminity@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 months ago
There’s a post explaining it somewhere, but IIRC, the reasoning is that due to the population and purpose of creating the instance in the first place, it’s to help protect people from brigading and the like.
Personally, it’s the only thing I don’t like about having an account here. The idea behind the choice is solid, but it does make it difficult to actually know what people think of a comment or post.

why? it’s obviously a dark humour joke, because it’s an absurd statement
kids obviously cannot be sexy. that you interpret it as anything other than an absurd statement reflects on yourself
you do realize that you’re in shitposts, right?

Lemmings are famously uptight
mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 8 months ago
I’m just impressed that I haven’t been shit on yet for expressing this opinion
on reddit I’d have been mass downvoted, told to kms, and banned. have been for similar things.

I can’t wait for the day Reddit fucking dies, seriously, I want to have discussions on LEmmy that aren’t just politics
