Everybody upvote Luigi content! Get banned! Leave reddit! Reddit crumbles! Fuck reddit! Go Luigi! Lemmy grows! Centralized social media dies! I eat a burrito. That last one wasn't really on topic, but it's happening anyways! I'm hungry.

Just keep in mind: your upvotes on Lemmy are visible to anybody who runs a Lemmy instance.

God help us if Elon Musk figures out how to run one.

ETA: I mention this because the current government wants to find anyone who does this.

The [unelected president] moaned on his platform that some Reddit users on the subreddit r/WhitePeopleTwitter had broken the law after they allegedly revealed the identities of his so-called DOGE goon squad.

I will save him the effort. I happily upvote things that contain the words Luigi and Elon.

Or just open the thread on an mbin instance. Here's everyone that upvoted this thread.

Edit: Downvotes (reduces) are less exposed, but as you said, someone can just run a fedi instance that exposes them to everyone.

Piefed upvotes are private though

This is actually what got me to swap as it reminded me some content will be banned, and so the social media I've had for over a decade and thought was going to be the only classic site to retain freedom of speech and expression had proven itself that they will not be afraid to start taking baby steps towards controlling and censoring media. And in the contents section of this post was a person spreading the news of this alternative. So here I am.

Don't forget to leave bad review of reddit app and encourage others to move to lemmy in the review.

Note that you actually need to review the app itself, not reddit. When I left a negative review about the whole reddit API mess, the review was removed and I was barred from leaving more reviews

I remember Reddit. I used to like it there.

John Spartan, you are fined one credit for violating the upvote morality statute.
