Comment on Flood of vibe-coded/slopware spam?

My proposal would address the issue of slop for everyone, whereas downvote proponents are just saying, “Yeah, well my way is better. Lemmy is only for people who do it my way.”
If this thread is a lesson in anything, it’s that the bad habits of Reddit carried over, and people are so fucking lazy, they can’t be bothered to click the report button.

If better means “more inclusive,” then yes. It’s better. Did I say to stop downvoting? No. Did I tell people to abandon their downvoting-enabled instances? No (though have a look and see how I’ve been told multiple times to leave mine).
Dunno why people are hellbent on excluding people who don’t want optional downvotes when non-optional reporting exists.
But do go on about how I’m excluding the poor instances with downvotes by recommending an inclusive action that they also benefit from.
