I don’t think it’s just downvotes that are the reason posts are deleted. What’s being ignored, is what follows after downvotes. And that is, users being antagonistic over nuanced posts because the posts don’t contain the kind of brainrot-meme-lamejoke kind of content that is the norm.

And it is never a good feeling getting dogpiled on for absolutely no reason other than just not appeasing to whatever expectancy that is there. Additionally, when there isn’t enough activity aside from that, people can feel like ‘what’s the point?’ because they simply don’t have enough numbers of people engaging.

So this creates this discouragement within them to keep bothering.

This is bait. I’m tired of these bait posts.

They’re bait posts because they’re preying on people to drop some really spicy unpopular opinion that nobody, even including the OP, will handle. It’ll create a scuffle, arguments and there will be calling for post removals and report wars will happen.

Also, it reeks of Reddit too, including to the last line.

Realize that AI will not actually do everything you think it would. Because it can’t. You still need to put effort in some things.

Sure, your question might be dunked on or joked with, but yeah, ask a person! /s

That’s a shame. I need to make sure to grab a few games from them before they sink. 90 days? plenty of time still since this announcement.

Thanks for your service.

You should also try to understand how this instance works including the rules.

“AS LONG AS THEY’RE NOT THE ORANGE MAN, WE GOOD!”

Their entire logic.

I don’t want them to. Reddit refugees have already long trashed Lemmy and they’ve been working around trashing other parts of the fediverse, proving that Reddit doesn’t exist for any good purpose.
