Looks gorgeous, like hogwarts or something
Another great bastion of reddit content has been felled.
Another reason for redditors to leave and join Lemmy.
It isn’t for no reason other than that. Granted, that is a reason. However, without a clear ratio of upvotes to downvotes, there’s no differentiating between good vs bad. YouTube removed their dislike button, but you can still see how many views a video has. If a video has 1m views but like 3k likes, you can see a ratio there. On here, there’s no ‘views’ per comment. So a use case would be that, say I posted something objectively false that supported a narrative. If others come along and support the same narrative and upvoted it, that post would look relatively credible. Downvotes allows for democratic running of social media. Which is what Reddit once was, and what lemmy is trying to be.
I know it’s a shit thing to say, but if your posts always get downvoted to oblivion, it’s probably moreso you that’s got a skewed outlook vs everyone else. (Not you as in you but you as in the general person)
It was fixed btw, just had to reload my app and find the page and viola! Sorted! Cheers.
Memmy and mlem TestFlight links are the same
Build it, if it’s good and respectable, then why not? If it’s just rude and full of bigots, expect it to be shunned.
Not even surprised at this point
why would you want that? out of interest?
Is it true that wefwef can read your password?

While you are correct, the reasons for Beehaw defederating from lemmy seems to be something they have to do in order to moderate their own instance. As the technology grows (and hopefully modtools get built - like bots perhaps? and more mods in general), there will be no need to deferederate like Beehaw did. However, to give you an example as to why an instance would want to defederate (essentially, be private), is if it's for an exclusive group of people. A workplace, or a subscription add-on. (think like, subscribing to a patreon, and as part of their offering, you get to sign up for their lemmy (or whatever server) instance). Maybe that isn't how it would work, but in my brain, that's a way it could be used and be beneficial :)
