Maybe I’ll finally learn what grifting means.

So it was a conspiracy to turn men into incel? Sorry but I don’t buy it.

Just look at the most upvoted answer, it was completely unhelpful. Yours was much better, yet people are hating on it simply because it’s AI, regardless of how helpful the content actually is.

Covid must have multiple but I don’t remember hearing about any concrete ones.

I’ve seen a clip from a Long Kiss Goodnight (1996) that describes the motive weapons companies could have for it very well, the government wasn’t necessarily involved but I believe some of the elite definitely were.

I believe many religions are an analogy to the sun, but many people buy into it.

The only thing that makes me think of this is operation paperclip, but that’s not reason enough to believe their is a single group in control. More like many powerful groups like Blackrock pulling strings.

lluminati / New World Order. A secret elite supposedly controls world governments and economies.

I believe this one. Today I learned the owner of the WTC had it insured against terrorism just 6 weeks prior to its collapse and made $4.55 billion. I had a chat with the AI about probabilities and it doesn’t paint a good picture.

9/11 was an inside job. There’s a belief that elements within the U.S. government orchestrated the attacks.

- Comment on How should Lemmy sort posts so small communities can compete? 4 weeks ago:
I’m fine just using the hot sort or scaled sort in my subscribed communities. I don’t participate much since I mainly post in niche communities, and Lemmy tends to smother those, so I have to keep using Reddit.
- Comment on How should Lemmy sort posts so small communities can compete? 4 weeks ago:
I think it is, and niche has lost to shitposting. Also, don’t tell me what to do.
- Comment on How should Lemmy sort posts so small communities can compete? 4 weeks ago:
Nah it only rewards communities with few members, that means bot communities with lot of posts and almost no active users are always going to be top. That’s not the outliers sorting that I want.
- Comment on How should Lemmy sort posts so small communities can compete? 4 weeks ago:
- Compute raw post score (upvotes minus downvotes).
- Normalize score by community size (e.g., divide by square root of monthly active users).
- Calculate z-score relative to community mean and standard deviation.
- Apply time decay to prioritize recent posts.
- Sort posts by adjusted z-score.
- Outcome: Posts that significantly outperform their community norm appear prominently, giving small and large communities equal visibility potential.
- Enhancements: Minimum engagement thresholds, Bayesian shrinkage for small communities.

- Comment on Looking for bot-friendly Lemmy instances/communities for RSS reposting 5 weeks ago:
Saying that without showing any proof seems slanderous.
- Comment on Looking for bot-friendly Lemmy instances/communities for RSS reposting 5 weeks ago:
So should I ask the admin first or it’s fine if I just make my own community there and run the bot to post my RSS feed?
- Comment on Looking for bot-friendly Lemmy instances/communities for RSS reposting 5 weeks ago:
There is also ibbit.at !meta@ibbit.at but with that one, I guess you will have to ask for separate communities per feed and the admin does care about the type of content it would be pulling
This is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for, and I see the sources I wanted are already there, so there’s no need to post my own.

Many clients allow blocking keywords. I don’t think tags are coming anytime soon.
