Lol that’s like saying there’s too much porn on /r/gonewild

If I remember correctly, the properties the API returns are comment_score and post_score.

Lemmy does have karma, it is stored in the DB, and the API returns it. It just isn’t displayed on the UI.

I’ve had nightmares less terrifying than this

I think the incentives are a bit different here. If we can keep the threadiverse nonprofit, and contribute to the maintenance costs of the servers, it might stay a much friendlier place than Reddit.

We should do an AmA with her!

Lemmy actually has a really good API. Moderation tools are pretty simple though.

Here people actually react to what I post and write. And they react to the best possible interpretation of what I wrote, not the worst. And even if we disagree, we can still have a nice conversation.

Does anyone have a good theory about why the threadiverse is so much friendlier? Is it only because it’s smaller? Is it because of the kind of people a new platform like this attracts? Because there is no karma? Maybe something else?

Did I miss something? Or is this still about Beehaw?

Made the switch 4 years ago. No regrets.

Hungarian here. It is safe to drink without boiling. People only boil water for baby formula to be extra safe.

First, thank you for the detailed response.

Second, I think you finally convinced me to delete my FB. I will link to this comment wherever possible to show people what a terrible company Meta is.

After all, they said we need quality content to attract new users

I’m the author of that bot. It will have an opt-out option, I implemented it as soon as someone suggested it:

Don’t spread sensationalist lies.

Oh wow, I’ve just realized it was OP I talked to in the comments. I immediately replied to their suggestion. What a clown 🤡

Can you tell us more about what they are like?

This is excellent, enjoy your Lemmy Gold!

This is an excellent explanation of hashing, and the interactive animations make it very enjoyable and easy to follow.
