i’ve seen a bunch of stuff about how that’s the way it’s supposed to be on Lemmy, but obviously people aren’t doing that…
really if that was the official original intention, it’s a UI issue…
something like Up Arrow and Poop Emoji instead of down arrow… or maybe more buttons, eg:
up, down, poop, or asparagus emoji… and various sorting options based on that….

i usually read all and i’ve never seen a boring company comm on my front page….
but “the lemmy way” is supposed to be: downvote if off-topic, spam or trolling, or some such, up vote if you like it…
not downvote if you disagree… lemmy is just too small for that at this point.
there are a lot of unpopular communities that deserve to exist that would be obliterated if everyone that hates them voted their posts down.
If you hate a community that shows up, just block that one community and it’s gone for you.
you can block entire instances for yourself….
i don’t think it should be allowed to exist at all, as the owner did the whole sieg heil salute and a bunch of other nazi stuff… but that’s an issue to take up with the instance, and i encourage you to do so and i’ll write them myself….
but in general, banning someone who only downvotes, downvotes “good” posts that should be on the community, makes complete sense.
sure, i just need a crematorium, and a mortar and pestle…
this is “downvote trolling”….
basically if you have a community that a lot of people hate, people will come in and downvote everything… some will even subscribe and downvote everything.
so, obviously “the boring company” will get a lot of musk hate (and i hate musk).
but yeah, if someone never participates in a comm and just shows up to downvote totally on-topic posts it makes sense to ban them….
…
i’ve been permanently shadowbanned from communities i totally liked and agreed with for making a comment that reasonably stated a disagreement with a post… banning for downvote trolling makes sense… even though i do hate Elon Musk….
(the whole boring company community should be deleted because it’s a company owned by a literal Nazi).
well it’s always vaporized, burning it will destroy it…
but it turns out, with a little chemistry you can put anything into a vape
people are hunting and doxing people who post things like the above posted meme…
i know, i made the meme before i saw the video
the blood doesn’t spray everywhere or all over him, but you can tell a lot gushed out quickly and goes out of view of the camera….
it’s really fast and mostly you notice his shirt moving suddenly
well slang is very regional, as well as specific to different subcultures… like gamers have tons of slang/jargon…
seems like kids like to appropriate slang from elsewhere (often black slang, probably from music), then they assume they invented it and gatekeep it, then it progresses to boring or becomes part of the language like “cool”….
but whatever, i’m down with it… it’s totally tubular!
right on… after a bit of looking i found this plugin, that i do not endorse at all:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lemmy-tagger/
in the release notes it says there’s a link to source code somewhere but i didn’t see it… also zero reviews….
i wish there was a “Reddit Enhancement Suite” equivalent for lemmy… (unless you’re using the web ui on mobile)
this is mocking them, not arguing with them… i think it’s good to point out holes in their logic
