From the linked description:

More accurately, the Lemmy community is surprisingly tolerant of a wide range of opinions

No, no they aren't. Communities have general set of opinions and they will often downvote you having the wrong one even if its as trivial as preferring the "wrong" team in a sporting event.

Q: Why doesn’t the bot notify for bans?

There are a few users who get banned or unbanned very day, as the pattern of user comments and votes changes over time. It’s important that bans be “lightweight,” and always reversible for anyone who is banned.

If I was randomly unbanned without being actually transgressive and I never knew when I could post I would very very shortly stop engaging with a community.

Q: Won’t people learn to fake upvotes for themselves and trick the bot?

It's worse most comments most places will have near zero engagement. Threads are full of stuff only a few people upvoted it would be easy to use this system to harass and silence people. Hell People look at karma as the communities judgement and are actually more likely to downvote less likely to upvote if an innocuous comment is shortly reduced to -1

Is there a lemmy instance that isn't basically trash?

It’s not cutting government programs, it’s cutting the amount of people needed to run a program,” Tillia told the Post. “They are cutting staff, which could actually increase the amount of the programs that we get.

Back in reality the only way to realize substantial savings is to cut benefits, those people eliminated are needed for you to get benefits at all and only Congress can create new programs.

Here she is a poor person on community assistance thinking she can support throwing people just like herself out of a job and somehow end up with more free shit.

Anyone think she will learn when they change her address to a slab of cardboard on the corner?

On steam I can click install and run and most games windows and Linux just work without further effort. This makes gog worthless to me. I could just use wine I don't know why I'd bother.

Why wouldn't they just slowly snipe you to death whike you waste trillions after the initial conflagration?

Totally aside from the economic collapse initiated by internal and external strife over this.

There are no blue MAGA. MAGA is a specific death cult around a charismatic Hitler figure who want to murder their neighbors, promote hate, and promote a white Isis like Christian state.

What the fuck is blue maga people who drive electric cars and support gay pride?

The question is why anyone would answer "why" have they never worked any of the types of job where people depend on each others effort in real time? Like 99.9% of low end jobs are like that.

Case fatality rate could be up to 50%. As mild cases are almost certainly entirely uncounted and the version that passes person to person will be a different variant we don't know if we are looking at something like covid or a fast moving black death.

So the rest of the day can be used for work. If you start at 930 everyone on time fucks off for half an hour

Because it often fucks over others who are either overworking themselves pulling your load or can't take their own break or lunch because you are late

There is not one grain of truth here its like talking with that guy who sits down to pee and wipes the tip of his Peter with tp because mommy taught him and everyone is too embarrassed to straighten him out.
