why would you take anything you see on the internet seriously?
You calling somebody out publicly is entirely to illicit a reaction from the crowd. Surely, a direct message would have been more appropriate for a disagreement over a series of downvotes?
By doing this publicly you’ve definitely made the situation way, way worse than it had to be.
I disagree with bringing in more redditors to this site. I think the community ambassador system is a quick way of creating a bunch of powermoderators on a system that’s supposed to be designed to resist that kind of behavior and centralization.
If you hate being downvoted because of disagreement, why would you want to bring more users who default to that behavior?
I also do not believe you should have any more power or capacity in the fediverse. It’s clear to me by your behavior in this thread that even basic things like being downvoted can set you off and make you decide to try to start a witch hunt.
Reddit promoted “downvote to disagree” and this is a consequence of the userbase having migrated from there.
You can say whatever you want about how it should work, but the bottom line is that most people using vote-based systems are voting up and down based on if they agree with what’s posted. It hasn’t been “downvote for off-topic” for over a decade.
This guy wants to bring more redditors to the site, the people actively perpetuating downvote to disagree.
Well, you are resorting to actively aggressive behavior in response to internet points.
Can you please explain why it matters?
It’s so weird to keep track of that, and petty on both sides if it has been happening for months like you say.
I also think you are placing way too high importance on vote counts, and specifically pinging people is not the way to handle your disapproval.
I am not catloaf but I have a problem with people literally combing vote logs to call users out in comments. That’s toxic verging on obsessive.
Absolutely not the way to act as the face of a project. It accomplishes nothing besides making you look incredibly petty and dissuades people from supporting your work.
Fearsome wizard powers.
Cutting spending on social services is how it traditionally works.
They’re already suffering severely. It’s all downhill from here folks.
Deleted comment was praising GitHub Copilot.
It’s literally just a glorified autocorrect and suggestion feature.
It also suggests complete stochastic garbage most of the time. When I type “list” sometimes it will try to infer that I am writing a cookbook and try to autofill to “of ingredients” or even further.
I just hope he can have a good night’s sleep, is all.
He looks like he did before he was famous; just totally fucking burned out.
Given the fact that it’s almost a foregone conclusion that PP is going to win the next election, I think countering disinformation through “influencers” did not work.
This is magical. I am so glad it was captured on film and uploaded to the internet.
Thanks for sharing!
It’s a great concept but such an awful name. “Return of the ugly” is just such a bad and clunky title.

Probably on the internet like the rest of us.
I tried Citadelum, which is a Roma-era city builder.
It’s a bit janky given that it’s an early demo, but it’s a neat premise given that the last Roman city builder I was aware of was Caesar 3 from '98.
I give it points for concept and setting, but I think Anno 117 is going to be my preferred Roman-era city builder when that drops, because I already know and love the Anno mechanics.
Tell me you didn’t read the article without telling me you didn’t read the article.
My brother in Christ, you are literally trying to power broker on federated social media.
Bro you’re the one who made the system slow paced by defunding it during a pandemic.
Get the fuck out of here. I’m so sick of the cons. Buck a beer is not going to help me when I’m in dire need of medical assistance.
