Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Men, how well do you know your best male friends?English
4·2 years agoHmm, interesting. Where are you from?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your opinion of online moderators? Do you think of them as an ally or an adversary?English
3·2 years agoExactly. I’m a mod in a few subreddits, the biggest of which is /r/Showerthoughts. People don’t notice our existence unless we interact with them directly, and you rarely interact with users unless to ban them or to remove their content. So it is expected to be hated.

World News@lemmy.ml•West Bank ‘not occupied’ territory, says Ron DeSantis
13·2 years agoHe is not denying that they are building settlemens. He just doesn’t consider it occupation. Anything for more donors, I suppose.
Check the post date.
I posted this 2 years ago.
Yeah I posted this 2 years ago. The way “Active” sorting works in Lemmy, is you see the posts with recent comments. Someone commented on this, pushing it back to the front page.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Has anyone else been trying to break their reddit-era habit of downvoting?English
141·2 years agoHackerNews has an interesting approach: You can’t downvote comments unless you reach a certain amount of “Karma”, and you can’t downvote posts at all, you can “flag” them, meaning you think they don’t belong here. Flagging doesn’t affect the vote count, but massive flagging does make the post appear lower in the feed, and alerts mods.
This, alongside the tight moderation and zero-tolerance towards flame wars in the comments makes HackerNews one of the best places on the internet imho.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Has anyone else been trying to break their reddit-era habit of downvoting?English
51·2 years agoSame. For me, upvote = adding something to the conversation. That’s why I upvote most comments I come across, and rarely downvote people.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Other than blue bubbles, why do you use iPhone?English
5·2 years agoComparing iPhone to “Android” isn’t fair, because people conveniently compare it to the lowest end. Compare the iPhone 14 Pro Max to the S23 Ultra for example, a phone from a respected company at the same price range. And it isn’t “luck”. Just a quick Google search will give you the high-end Android devices currently.

World News@lemmy.ml•[Meta] Could be please not transform this community into another shithole for Usonian news?
0·4 years agoI agree, but that is very subjective, don’t you think? I’m interested for example in the post that said Trump is suing Twitter. I won’t waste time reading the article most probably, but the news is amusing nonetheless. So what decides whether something is interesting enough to the whole globe or not?

World News@lemmy.ml•[Meta] Could be please not transform this community into another shithole for Usonian news?
0·4 years agoImho, as long as the title isn’t clickbaity, its okay. We shouldn’t reach a stage where “Trump should be impeached” is an acceptable headline, like /r/politics
Why is this a line graph? What’s on the X axis?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What funny or memes oriented or generally interesting sublemmy community would you recommend?
2·4 years agoJoin us at /c/memes! The thing with Lemmy is that it is still very young. So if you see a community not getting enough attention, post there yourself. When you and I start posting, and people start seeing more content, they will start posting as well.









Got archived because it’s “feature complete” and won’t receive more updates, but some package managers removed it.
There is objectively better alternatives like fastfetch.
