You know it’s a good shit post when I reflexively downvote, then hesitantly upvote. Like an abusive relationship.
I don’t think I have any kind of high ground. I do think you’re a bit of an idiot.
Yea this is a bad idea. All this will do is force small investors-think people that have made maybe a million dollars in their life and are retiring at 70-to pay taxes they don’t have cash to pay.
gestures broadly to previous comments
So you support genocide?
Not a bad thing honestly, whats nice about high frequencies is lower penetration. More access points, lower power, overall better signal and less interference. Line-of-sight microwave for covering distance.
Fun stuff
Guess you’re in the same position as me, you can’t do anything to help.
You’re going to contribute to an outright fascist that wants to turn Gaza into a parking lot.
Live with that however you want 🤷♂️ Only difference is I’m not being a dick to you about it
I don’t think Harris has a good stance on Gaza. You’re berating the wrong person.
I do think Harris has the best chance to improve the life of myself and my family.
Both of these ideas can exist. Confusing, I know.
Like you realize your particular style of rhetoric here doesn’t help anyone and just makes you look like a prick, right?
Acknowledging other political issues exist and are at play in this election != supporting genocide and the comparison is fucking stupid.
Let’s not dismiss the horrors of abrahamic faiths either
Everyone says that about their single issue.
I agree it’s important but other things also exist.
Zoom out, look at the bigger picture beyond your single issue
Dunno, we’ve never seen anything go wrong with the Soviet system of representation before have we?
Flip the roles here
“Someone got cheated on and is bitter about it”
Makes it more clear how much of a prick you’re being
This comment was in response to someone expressing regret about joining .ml if I recall correctly
Edit: I'm convinced all this guy does is camp out in front of his computer and wait for an excuse to abuse what itty bitty power he has.
Edit: changed post to use Imgur link instead of downloading a file
What a bunch of fucking babies, lol
Update: so, the responses this far are almost universally that these bots have been blocked by users of the community. There is also a general disinterest in defederating, which is on brand.
You guys wanna do a poll or something or?
I’d like to lead my thoughts with a quote from the admins regarding bots within lemm.ee:
“Bots must not be responsible for the majority of content in any community”
There are two entire instances that immediately spring to mind, zerobytes.monster’s b0t user, and lemmit.online. Their content is quite literally 90% bot content with 0 engagement, and they spam constantly.
Now here at lemm.ee we generally don’t defend from stuff, that’s actually why I prefer this instance. Yes, you can block the bot users and that solves the problem, but hear me out:
These bots ruin the experience on Lemmy for new users. They spam so many posts, attempting to block them from a mobile app will usually crash the app. If you’re a new user coming to Lemm.ee sorting by all, you see tons and tons of empty posts.
Zerobytes is particularly egregious because it doesn’t even repost actual content, just thousands and thousands of links to Reddit posts. It’s a spam instance, period, and I feel strongly about this.
Lemmit.online isn’t quite as bad, but it’s an entire instance dedicated to spam reposting everything from Reddit. All the posts have zero engagement, and the comment value is gone so everything decent gets buried.
Yes there are ways around this on an individual user level, but then you’re creating a context where there’s even less engagement in the vast majority of “new” posts.
Anyway, thems my thoughts. Repost bots are stupid, one that drive traffic to Reddit are even worse. Thoughts?
For whatever reason when I attempt to login on firefox or chrome from my iPhone 11, I get the infinite spinning circle. Anyone else experienced this?
Are we just stuck with browsers for the time being? I mean it works but fuck I miss Apollo already.
