Anything from Anker after they cancelled an order with PayPal approved payment because 'they couldn't verify payment'. Then they insist that the cancelled order could be reviewed if I put personally identifiable information into a random Google sheets doc.

All complaint handling appeared to be a bot. They refused to explain what was the concern with the payment and always responded with very similar 'apology' emails even when I indicated for every email they send i'd inform another person to avoid them.

Test thread - please help (self.syncforlemmy)

I'm looking to generate some test data for Sync. Ideally any number of top level/parent comments of any vote count, but no child comments at any depth should have a higher (or equal) vote count than its immediate parent.

Can you assist?

For the comment going negative, please downvote all children so the child vote is lower than its parent.

This spider with its fantastic colouring (zoom in) was found in my backyard. I've never seen another.
