MODERATORS
It’s also great that you can join a server with downvote disabled entirely and just ignore everyone who has a problem with it. And/or turn off vote display entirely in some apps and not feed the scoring addiction at all. It’s such an effective cockblock for people who specifically say dumb things like “enjoy the downvotes.” Nope, joke’s on you, pal. Nothing but positive feedback on my end.
Ignorance is bliss, but the rest of us see you getting trashed when you say dumb shit
Here, someone else for you to downvote

Also, fuck them birds, they’re destroying orchard crops at the moment. No sympathy. If my cat catches one, I’m giving him a treat.
This coming from the moron who thinks coyotes are on Maui.
Doesn’t matter, go off with your circle jerk.
edit: to whoever replied to this, good for you, whatever it was, apparently I’ve already blocked you, or voyagerapp deemed it unnecessary to show it to me.
Reddit term detected. Mods, crush his skull, thank you
LOL, perfect example
Yes, saying coyotes are on Maui is a perfect example of a dumb thing to say.
Here, let me stomp on that dick for you.
Now that you mention it, I haven't seen any "enjoy the downvotes" comments on Lemmy yet. Can't say I miss it.
Oh, the Redditors are here, with their usual rhetoric.
With the plethora of sorting options given here, the votes can truly be meaningless. Like if you sort by New Comments, the only thing pushing a post to the front page is someone making a comment on it. So the only stuff you see every time you refresh the FP is something people are actively talking in.
The numbers really only matter in Active, Hot and Top. And New Comments is a much better way of finding out what is both hot and active, even when it's only hot and active because people hate it and are expressing how much they hate it.
