Comment on How should Lemmy & Piefed handle voting activity from banned/deleted accounts?
Blaze@piefed.zip 3 weeks agoBecause it’s treated differently in piefed but
Then Piefed is fine?
Especially with instances that love to keep those types around, see world and shit just works.
Instances who tolerate bad faith trolls or bad actors are going to do so with or without tools such as Piefed’s.

If the part after the but is ignored sure. But that part is also the issue so 🤷.
The point is the tools of piefed will amply the bad actors by allowing them to do the worst parts of reddit in the fediverse.

Piefed system doesn’t punish those who do not act “the way the creator wants”.
Downvotes given are only actions from the user, no interaction from the Piefed dev.
Downvotes received is feedback from other users, no interaction from the Piefed dev either.
Trolls are already around, as you pointed out in another comment. I would rather have a tool that works 80% of the time to detect trolls than no tools at all.

When you ignore all the downsides and concerns everything looks amazing.
I wish I had your confidence in it being positive

And when you only focus on the edge cases every tool seems insufficient.
