Hmm, interesting. Where are you from?

Exactly. I’m a mod in a few subreddits, the biggest of which is /r/Showerthoughts. People don’t notice our existence unless we interact with them directly, and you rarely interact with users unless to ban them or to remove their content. So it is expected to be hated.

Counting Android is just lying. ChromeOS and WSL are a stretch, but you can make an argument for them.

Changing the JWT secret does this. So instead of a button, its a line of code, making it less likely to be done by mistake.

Check the post date.

I posted this 2 years ago.

Yeah I posted this 2 years ago. The way “Active” sorting works in Lemmy, is you see the posts with recent comments. Someone commented on this, pushing it back to the front page.

HackerNews has an interesting approach: You can’t downvote comments unless you reach a certain amount of “Karma”, and you can’t downvote posts at all, you can “flag” them, meaning you think they don’t belong here. Flagging doesn’t affect the vote count, but massive flagging does make the post appear lower in the feed, and alerts mods.

This, alongside the tight moderation and zero-tolerance towards flame wars in the comments makes HackerNews one of the best places on the internet imho.

Same. For me, upvote = adding something to the conversation. That’s why I upvote most comments I come across, and rarely downvote people.

Comparing iPhone to “Android” isn’t fair, because people conveniently compare it to the lowest end. Compare the iPhone 14 Pro Max to the S23 Ultra for example, a phone from a respected company at the same price range. And it isn’t “luck”. Just a quick Google search will give you the high-end Android devices currently.

I mean Lemmy kinda servers the same purpose, and the way comment threads work us way better than Facebook. What features are you missing?

I feel that should change, but thanks for answering.

I’m talking about privacy and freedom respecting services going out of their way to submit to western politics. I like my services unbiased.

Fucking hell Mozilla. First DuckDuckGo, now Firefox. And Brave still refuses to pull its head out of its ass to be a viable alternative. The Fediverse continues to prove that it is the future for people like us, fuck corporations.

Just five? I’m pretty sure the NSA had access to all their messages since at least 2001.

Why is this a line graph? What’s on the X axis?

Join us at /c/memes! The thing with Lemmy is that it is still very young. So if you see a community not getting enough attention, post there yourself. When you and I start posting, and people start seeing more content, they will start posting as well.
