  • Yeah the issue is that the upvote/downvote binary is used for more than just (good contribution)/(bad contribution).

    Back when Reddit was small enough to have community values, reddiquette was taken semi-seriously. But with the push for more users over the past 5-7 years, that’s all gone out the window.

    I’ve thought a bit about how that issue could be fixed in a way that still allows content to be rated by usefulness democratically, and I’m pretty convinced that for that to happen, there would need to be an upvote/downvote and an agree/disagree.

    Order content by vote delta, but display the agree/disagree counts on the content.

    Would be interesting to be able to see content that makes good arguments but that is largely disagreed with instead of having that content disappear at the bottom of the page.

  • Not totally sure where I stand on the issue but I definitely despise meta as much as the next guy.

    I’m definitely not 100% informed about the fediverse, but my understanding was that Threads implements the same protocol that Mastadon servers use, and that that’s different from what lemmy uses. Is that incorrect?

  • I love that you talked about regretting it. Using one of the arch-based diaries that obfuscates the installation process honestly destroys a lot of the benefit of using arch. Having to vaguely understand how the system fits together makes fixing issues a million times easier.

  • Sort of related, but this reminds me of a really annoying thing that’s been happening on my work windows 11 machine.

    Any time I launch chrome from VSCode to attach a debugger, edge launches along with it, and directs me to a page that says “try the new bing.”

    Absolutely infuriating, makes me want to uninstall edge.
