Thanks for sharing, not sure why so many downvotes
I haven't watched, but assuming it's good I'm guessing it's idiots viewing the all feed and downvoting anything they're not personally interested in.
It doesn't help that the official Lemmy docs say downvote things you don't like, which is only good guidance when you have an algorithm you're training.
Fuck I hate self-righteous "downvotes aren't for things you dislike" shit like this. Pair it with the hypocritical assumption people don't understand something you admit youhaven't taken the time understand yourself and you're nearing peak oblivious internet poster.
How the hell are you supposed to say you don't like a post/comment? Can we please stop treating up/down votes like a mandatory tip? So someone posted something, if it's shit it gets downvotes if it's not it doesn't. You don't automatically deserve an upvote just because you posyed something. Fuck right off with that.
As an aside, the desktop paradigm has been solid for decades for a reason. Clickbait "we should change things for the sake of change" shit like this absolutely should be downvoted as the meaningless algorithm baiting drivel it is.
I'm talking about people downvoting from all - if you're seeing content from some niche or geographic community because you're viewing all then downvoting something you're not interested in is a dick move.
No, it's objectively a bad watch with a dumb premise. Read the big comment on here if you want a quick summary for why this is getting shit on. Or watch it yourself and formulate a real opinion instead of just blasphemy.
