On reddit I don’t downvote users unless someone is purposely saying something hateful, but I downvote all the ads. It doesn’t do much, but it does something and is a little cathartic.

I hope this doesn’t go away if lemmy explodes in popularity, it’s definitely one of my favorite parts of the platform.
Based answer. Tankies aren’t welcome.
I think this all just goes to show that there is no “hivemind” here. Nobody is getting mass downvoted, but because it’s a small community, the rule of 1% doesn’t apply and there’s therefore no bad content to be buried.
I don’t know, but I tried to access it and got an error 404. We can’t find out why it was blocked because it was blocked.
Because it’s blocked we can’t go over and see what’s up lol
Also, the small communities are nice, I feel like that definitely adds to the feeling of the place being run by us. Reddit also has a habit of being cynical and uncaring, as well as having the whole “hivemind” phenomenon, whereas this feels like a cozy and wholesome corner of the internet.
Oh nice! I’m in the wizardposting community, some freedom of information communities, fuckcars, programmerhumour, the general chat one, and a couple of others.
Which communities do you visit the most?
There’s really no reason to downvote in the kind of environment that Lemmy has created! Everyone is respectful and kind and every post is so wholesome!
I think this is just a case of the rule of 1% not applying here, but the small wholesome environment definitely helps.
