If you're not going to contribute anything but your rage, you should shut up. This is what the downvote button is for.
Deebster@programming.dev 10 months ago
No, the downvote is meant to be for things that don’t contribute to the discussion, not for things you disagree with.
killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Is this documented for Lemmy or just grandfathered from Reddit?
Not all instances even support upvotes. Some only support downvotes. Does every instance have to agree on the meaning?
ggsu7@futurology.today 10 months ago
Explain the downvotes for my “unrelated” comment.
samus12345@lemmy.world 10 months ago
That’s the ideal, but we all know that’s not how the majority of users use it.
spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Upvotes and downvotes are only there to tell people with no wrinkles how they should feel about a post. It creates a preconceived bias.
Shut up.

Scolding is the highest form of contribution. Don’t forget to turn on the roomba
FaceDeer@kbin.social 10 months ago
The irony of this response is palpable.
killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Careful my guy, you might get censorshipped!
spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
I’ve been vaccinated, I’m okay!
Bluegoon@startrek.website 10 months ago
He’s right, don’t pretend to align to virtues you don’t with a straight face, get fucked.

If it’s so shitty, then you can leave
ggsu7@futurology.today 10 months ago
Fuck off nazi
Bluegoon@startrek.website 10 months ago
Lmao wtf
spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
That is not censorship, my smooth friend. Nobody is censoring anybody in this context.
If you turn your tv off during a newscast are you censoring the broadcaster?
JustSomePerson@kbin.social 10 months ago
If my broadcaster blocks the news segments they don't want me to see, it is. That's what's happening here. Instance owners are taking it upon themselves to block content from users. Bullying pieces of shit are trying to strong arm instance owners into defederating.
sour@kbin.social 10 months ago
you dont want big company to be associated with fediverse you’re a nazi
n3m37h@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Go suck on Zucks nips. We’re just blocking garbage
BraveSirZaphod@kbin.social 10 months ago
If the Threads-blocking instances have this level of maturity, I don't think we'll be missing much. Being equally childish as Facebook comments is impressive.
calvinbacon@r.nf 10 months ago
If threads is so great why doesn’t anyone use it
BraveSirZaphod@kbin.social 10 months ago
I'd throw some articles showing user counts, but you'd probably just call them fake.
But if you are actually curious, I can gladly provide some. There was just recently a big influx of users with the EU launch, a tagging system was recently introduced, and more and more large creators have continued to migrate over.
n3m37h@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Buh bye! Go to threads then, I seriously dont care.
Facebook has shown time and time again they can not be trusted with anything.
From spreading miss information to starting a coup and every shitty thing between.
BraveSirZaphod@kbin.social 10 months ago
Already there actually and have had a pretty good experience, though it doesn't scratch that same Reddit-style itch nor is it trying to. It's chilling at somewhere around 100 million users, so I'm not the only one.
toasteecup@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Honestly, with the user level blocking feature in personally against instance level blocking as well.
- I strong believe in user choice. It’s clear from this thread that there isn’t an overwhelming majority in favor of instance blocking threads. There does not appear to be one that’s not in favor.
1a) if the instance held a vote on the matter id naturally accept the majority choice.
- if privacy is a concern (which it should be because Facebook), we’re already screwed. Fediverse interactions (comments posts votes) are a matter of public record. So even if we block threads at the instance level, they can still zuck up our data so we’re not really gaining anything there.

Honest question, how would they be able to do damage via the federation protocol?
My understanding was that it sends data regarding posts comments and actions to all servers.
The closest I thought I had was some kind of instance ban but while that gets federated, it doesn’t result in a ban elsewhere
Instance a bans user foobar Instance b sees this information but foobar is not banned by instance b.
We saw some of that with the hexbear drama a couple of months back

Yay ban evasion?

InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
And much like Barney above, they’ll keep coming back .
ggsu7@futurology.today 10 months ago
Your lack of arguments prompts you to post something completely unrelated to the post. I believe you would call this ad hominem or whatever buzzwords you use.
spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
You should do something constructive with your anger, child.
ggsu7@futurology.today 10 months ago
Says the guy who posted “shut up”… I wonder who’s underage here.
Pxtl@lemmy.ca 10 months ago
That’s an awful lot of words to say “yes, that’s me”.
Get some help.
ggsu7@futurology.today 10 months ago
Lol
InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Arguments are used in debate, this isn’t really one.
Honestly, this meme was just a hunch and I’d love to be proven wrong.
Setarkus@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Why would everything posted in this comment section have to do with the post, especially if it’s a response to another comment instead of directly to the post?
Infynis@midwest.social 10 months ago
When we’re arguing about what should and shouldn’t be allowed on the Fediverse, ad hominem is relevant, because it proves that you already don’t speak for anyone else
qaz@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I love how people check these kinds of things on here
