Thx. Is this all stated on the nsfw instance info page?

Downvotes show up for me. I can see posts that are down voted at least. Maybe it’s just on my end then. Good to know.

Well people upvoted my comment and no one down voted it. So it seems you’re the only one with a problem? It seems most people value suggestions to make the community a better place. I’m not sure why you do not.

Also yes, I feel bad that OP thought it was directed at her. Luckily, I responded and cleared it up and she understood that it was not directed towards her. Humans and animals have this neat little skill called communication. You’d be amazed what communicating clearly can solve. I clearly communicated to her that it wasn’t about her, and everything is good now. The end result was good.I don’t see the issue here.

So it is unnecessary to give mods suggestions on how to better moderate and clean up their community? Weird take but okay.

Sorry dude, there’s nothing you can do. They’re not going to change their beliefs regardless of what you say or do. Ya either gotta accept that this is who they are and find a way to work around it, or you cut off all ties and go your separate ways. It really sucks but there’s no reason to waste your energy on something futile. It will be a waste of time and just leave you disappointed and upset.

No no! Not for you! Not at all. Just stuff I’ve noticed in general.

Thank you for your moderation! Now just ban obvious onlyfans advertising and sympathy-bait titles and we’re golden!

Edit: examples of sympathy bait titles that I’ve seen here in the last few weeks:

“My BF said I looked fat. What does Lemmy think?” -(Obvious made up story and the person posting is clearly in great shape)

“I don’t have the best body but here it is!” - same situation as above

And lastly. “First post here and I’m shy. Please be nice.” - post history shows they’ve posted the same thing like 19 times over the past 3 days.

I would never take financial advice from random people on a message board.

Nothing. Democrats are fucking useless. They have no power now because they blew the election in every single way possible. They did literally everything wrong. It was almost as if they tried to lose on purpose.

Then try out for the team yourself. It’s always hilarious when the average person thinks they have the right to say that professional players suck when 99.99999% of the time these people can barely get out of their desk chair without getting tired. Not saying this is you, just a general comment.

It will be repeated based on the clown replies we’ve gotten from community members here and the down votes we’re currently accumulating. If you take clowns from Reddit and move them to Lemmy, they’re still clowns. Why would anything change?

Let this be a lesson in communication everyone. When you post questions, please add even the fucking minimal amount of context so that the question makes sense. Don’t do what OP did.

Obvious troll account. What is going on with this community lately? It’s like 99% ragebait troll posts.

One portal in my living room. One portal at the local taco bell.

Yea well none of this is really surprising. Lemmy is supposed to be a Reddit alternative and therefor it was always destined to fall victim to many of the same issues that plagued Reddit. Just because you get rid of centralization doesn’t automatically make a platform or community good :-/. Can you believe the toxic responses we’re getting to our comments? Absolute trash people in this community.

Yes, people truly believe this. It seems obviously bonkers to you and I, because we have at least average critical thinking skills. The people who believe these things have way below average critical thinking skills. And there A LOT of these people. Just look at your normal bell curve chart.

Can we please limit these stand up quote posts? Perhaps post them under a different stand up community? This community has been flooded with these lately and it’s really annoying. The same bullshit was responsible for ruining a lot of Reddit subreddits. Please don’t ruin the communities here on Lemmy.

Sorry you got downvoted. I 100% agree with you. These communities are getting flooded with this fucking garbage and these posts should be on their own Stand-up communities. Judging from the replies to your comment, the community here seems just as dogshit as Reddit, so unfortunately I fully expect these communities to go to shit. Between the political posts and this crap, it has already basically been ruined. Such a shame that people are okay with this stuff.

Mods, you have a serious issue with misinformation in this Community. I suggest you guys work on a solution to combat this. Most of the replies in this thread are sharing blatantly false or misleading information. It’s honestly extremely concerning.

OP, please find information on this topic from reputable sources instead of asking random people on the Internet. DO NOT make financial/tax decisions based on what people here say.

Lol
