Making it sound non-threatening for the rich.

Yeah, you need to read the whole story to see how they are abusing those votes, gang behavior, swarming, by someone down-voting them, using this outside tool. I think there are other exploits as well.

Gotcha, well that is unfortunate, as it is obviously being used by some, go$fsckyourself, for exploit.

I have no idea how the admin tools work, so asking the wrong person. He told me they 'plan to' ban it, didn't say how...or when. I have already escalated the issue, now that go$fskyourself and his bullying gang have shown themselves over this incident, to the actually lemmy programmers. They were already aware of this outside tool, and it didn't sound like they were happy about it, but left the issue dangling. I have re-opened it showing the abuse from go$fsckyourself and how it can harm others, so we will see what can be done.

I assume one can create a community and gain admin tools? If that is true, can you then use that tool to also see up/down votes by users outside your own community? If so, that would be another easy exploit for a user wanting this tool.

Edit to add: The programmer of Lemmy replied;

Unfortunately, instances need to explicitly block snooping tools like lemvotes, and also discover other sites/tools that are exposing votes, and adding them to blocklists. Reach out to your server admins and ask them to instance block it.

So, apparently instances/admins can ban this tool.

😮...if you can dream it.

You are still exposed by using Apple products. Use linux for PC's with encryption, vpn. For a phone, switch to device, such as a Google Pixel, or several other manufacturers that can use a privacy android rom. I use CalyxOS, private, secure and de-googled.

Lets not forget...operation PRISM which was exposed by Snowden.

I find using Lutris for gaming is easier, but there is also Bottles, both allow you to setup all the MS junk as needed per game, including options for using Wine's Proton if need be or desired.

I am the user in reference. Did I use another instance to down-vote, yes in this case. Why? because I felt I was backed into a corner. In hindsight, I should have contacted the mod admin or whomever, but this was not the first time they have done this to me, it happened also on memes @ lemmy world. I am sure others have come across their behavior on meme sites.

The complete story, which go $fsk yourself conveniently leaves out, is that he is part of a gang/group of users that go around meme sites, and other art related sites, and harass people who use AI. Here is their base of operation. They even use it to not only go after users, but communities. Firstly, some AI memes are hard to detect if AI is even involved. I can hardly tell at times, nor do I really care, but this anti-AI fascist group of users seem to police most memes and point a finger and cry "YOU ARE USING AI!!", as if they alone can determine for us. Didn't the Nazi's do this sort of behavior when they banned/burned "questionable" books?

The real issue is they are using an outside tool, as noted below, to harass users. How do you know this? Well, look at the OP's link to the post in question. Is go $fsk yourself or any of the other anti-AI posters there commenting on the meme's content? No, they are there with their agenda...to harass and bully people who us AI. He is trying to cover it up and play the victim, as they have done before.

I apologize to the community for using the alts, it won't happen again, but there is a much serious issue here. The fact that a user is using an outside tool on your community and others, and even so bold as to teach others, as noted below, how to use it to go after other users. Here is the tool he is using.. The community (Lemmy Shitpost) has already decided to ban this tool going forward. The admin DM'd me. This should be banned by Lemmy World as a whole.

Here is another example of go $fsk yourself going after someone else.

And here he is and his tag-team gang going after lemmy.dbzer0.com.

Made by AI.

This is creepy, stalking users. You are not here commenting on the meme's topic which means you are here with a specific agenda, harassment.

So you admit that you are trolling/ harassing me then. Thanks for confirming my point.

You don't want the admins to address the AI policy here so you are trying to deflect tthe issue. Nice try.

OK, thanks.

I meant posting AI memes to the community (Lemmy Shitpost.) Maybe something the "owner" needs to decide. Is that Striker? I don't know how all the hierarchy works, but someone must come up with the rules.

A few of these anti-AI fascist that posted here today, have already harassed me on another meme community about using AI to the point I just left. I recognized them today here, the tag-team. I really like Lemmy Shitpost. I am sure I am not the only member this is happening to, as they seem to force their agenda. I would be nice if this was actually addressed...by clear cut AI accepted or not rules. Thanks.

Thank you. I think something to bring to the other admins would be the core issue here which hasn't been addressed. Are AI memes allowed or disallowed on your sub? You should decide this and make it part of your rules on the sidebar.

These anti-AI fascist are using your gray area to come into the sub and harass/down-vote members. If there was a clear-cut rule on whether AI memes are accepted or not, then there is a possibility for recourse as it would be going against the subs rules. Right now, they are clearly using the lack thereof to enact their opinions and harassing punishments on members.

I guess that is a yes then.

Yes, these anti AI tag team members are annoying. It is a sub trying to make people laugh and point out ironic situations. The world is dark enough. These anti-AI hypocrites and trolls make it even darker. Thanks for understanding. I will reach out to you if the situation happens again. If you wish to ban me, let me know, but you will still have these same members going after your sub...deliberately negating its true intent.

Are you part of his harassing AI team? I get it now.

He is one of the tag-team members who calls out AI posts, yet here he is posting AI. Again, the irony is blatant.

And now you want the mod to give you more of their blood and bow down to you? This is what trolls do, which is exactly why you are here.
