Would you mind moving your breasts out of the way, you’re covering up the watermarks

Holy shit thats subtle. We are fucking doomed

I open lemmynsfw.com with my dick in my hand. Im not taking any stance on anything while doing that. Outside? Sure. Here? Again dick in hand.

I didnt say I didnt care about politics. Politics are literally everywhere already and this just adds another drop of piss in an already very smelly pool.

Up until now it hasn’t been an issue on this server. But if this keeps up thats probably a good idea to enable. Not sure if Voyager has them though

Yes exactly. But stuff like this distracts from that activity.

Please can there be one tiny corner of the internet not posting about politics. Looking at the greater Lemme/Reddit spaces there is no shortage of political commentary.

Please leave it out of here.

Thanks for being open and honest with the community. I’ll admit I’m disappointed by the decision. But you did the right thing by communicating and letting the community help shape the decision.

Shoot you found the flaw in my system.

Every downvote on pro-downvote comments should count as a vote for re-enabling. Clearly they’re okay with downvotes, at least when it suits them haha

I hope those who are downvoting comments because they don’t want downvotes re-enabled realize the irony.

I don’t care about winning against you or getting you to do anything, your opinions and actions after today are your own.

Suppressing down votes is something I disagree with, and I’m voicing those concerns.

You don’t need viewers yet you’re up in arms about the -1 vote button coming back?

Posters need viewers and vise versa. One cannot function without the other. So no I reject your appeal to authority fallacy.

Felt like the momentum of the instance picked up enough that it was self sustaining.

Up to you.

I posted when this instance first started and there was nearly nothing. So yeah I would and did. I didnt complain about the down votes and wasnt demanding up votes either.

I’m entitled to nothing, posts or votes. You are entitled to nothing as well.

Lol I’m sorry but you’re are entitled to nothing when posting. If people like it, great you get upvotes. No one is entitled to those votes though. If you were, then they’d be meaningless (or at least more meaningless haha)

Id say enable it. There is no complex algorithm that promotes content based on up and down votes like with sites like YouTube. If people want niche stuff that performs poorly on All > Top, they can see it on the niche sub for that content in their subscriptions or directly on the sub page. Having a low score doesnt delete posts.

Having to enumerate every single rule on a sub would be horrific and more importantly preference can’t be written into rules. What a community likes and doesnt like is based on the voting system, thats the fundamental point of Lemmy and reddit.

Thinking you can post whatever you want and expect all the exposure without regards to a communities tastes just because it doesnt explicitly violate rules is entitlement.
