Clowns to the left of me. Jokers to the right.
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.
Yup. No problem though. In the future AI can just add the now very real town to you AR eyeballs brought to you by Chipotle Exxon and T mobile.
Would this be the same AI that spits out incorrect summarys or just flat out gets data incorrect constantly? What could possibly go wrong by making that the ONLY way to look for things going forward. Fucking morons.
Microsoft what the fuck are you doing.
You fucking idiot’s.
I made my Lemmy account the day I got reddit banned. So the age of this account is how long ago they nuked my accounts lol
If you need fake Internet points to motivate you to be a good person then you are probably not a good person.
I’m not saying you specifically OP, but just in general. If karma was the only reason someone was civil on reddit that gives off the same vibes as the people who ask why we aren’t out raping and murdering if we don’t believe in God.
I wouldn’t hold your breath. From what I can tell you and I are cooked for good. Oh well.
I had two fairly old reddit accounts (10+ years and 100s or thousands of comments and post karma) get nuked without them giving me a reason. They just said I broke TOS. I appealed and asked what rule I broke and it was instantly denied. I still have no clue what rule I allegedly broke.
I tried making a new account with a different email on a new device using a new Internet connection and it got banned after 30 minutes.
Fuck reddit. Banning people and never giving them a reason or a chance to correct their mistake (if they even made one) is ludicrous.
You can see when Snapchat decided the redesign their entire app and then I stopped using it entirely for the rest of my life lol.
This must be why all the shows feel like they were written by a high schooler. Constantly repeating information like the viewer isn’t paying attention. Constant visual AND auditory exposition.
Netflix and streaming as a whole enjoyed a brief reign at the top, but unfortunately they never learned their lesson and we ended up right back where we started.
Too many tv channel packages=more sailing of the high seas. When they made it so almost everything could be found in one place for a small fee we all rejoiced and many got off the ship. But then they went right back to too many channel packages (just now in the form of a hundred individual streaming services) and now we return once more to the high seas.
That still doesn’t address the fact that not all instances are created equal. And it’s not immediately apparent which instances block others.
You make a good point. The key difference is that some instances block other instances (or at least that has been my understanding of how Lemmy works from my limited time here). So depending on where they sign up they might not even be able to access certain subs.
Plus the “duplicate” subs on reddit tend to be one of two reasons. The original moderators let the sub die or enough people didn’t get along with how the original sub was being moderated and they left to make their own copy. It’s pretty rare that there are two identical subs that have equal engagement.
As someone who is “stuck” here after being permabanned on all accounts on reddit I can say that the number one “issue” Lemmy has is also the greatest part about Lemmy. The fact that every instance can have its own copy of the “same” sub.
I completely understand why someone coming from reddit is going to search up “ask” and they will see a few ask Lemmy subs coming up. At a glance they won’t know which one is “better” and why there are multiple.
Sadly most people will turn around and leave at that point. The average internet user will just go somewhere else the moment they feel lost or confused by anything. The few that might stick through it and make a post asking why there are multiple instances of the same type of sub are likely to be spoken down to by a bunch of condescending nerds that feel superior to outsider idiots. I know that many of you are very kind and welcoming, but enough of the user base are elitist pricks about everything that new users will notice immediately.
Lemmy can’t seem to decide if they want to grow or if they want to gate keep. I think the reality is that as more people are blanket banned from reddit without any reason such as myself that people will keep slowly trickling in.
The only “change” I think Lemmy needs is its user feedback. I have been banned from so many subs for completely unrelated things and without going and looking up the mod logs for my own name I wouldnt have any clue whatsoever. I would just think that Lemmy was broken constantly since it just gives you submitting errors instead of telling you that you have been banned or anything.
The “automod” messages are basically useless as they don’t tell you what rule you broke, which comment it was specifically or who actually initiated the ban. I know they aren’t always actually “automatic” bans because I have gotten messages from automod for comments I left weeks ago. So either they are the slowest and least attentive bots on planet earth or the mods of those subs are using the automod to hide behind as a layer of anonymity.
That seems like a lot more work that it’s worth lol
You make good points. I agree.
Yeah and I completely agree with you, but look at the comments in this thread. So many people are coming off as elitists “why should we make things easier for stupid idiots we hate?”.
Seems that many users here don’t actually want anyone else joining unless they meet their arbitrary standards for intelligence or whatever.
Well sucks for them I guess. Maybe they shouldn’t have banned a contributing user for no apparent reason.
Oh well. Couldn’t have happened to a worse website.
I don’t know if I would say itll “go away” with time. More like it will get diluted over time as more people join with varying stances on things.
See I am smarter and better than you so I know this to be the truth.
/s
Is that why my multiple accounts with hundreds of thousands of karma were all nuked simultaneously and I was never told why?
Fuckin AI nuked my shit?
I tried to appeal but it was instantly denied and even though I asked what rule they are claiming I broke I still got no answers.
Fuckin AI…
Now I’m starting to think that getting banned from reddit and them not telling me why and instantly denying my appeal was just a test. What a garbage website and moderation.
