lemmy.world admins made a bot that used MBFC and many considered it a bad move. I'm sure there are others but here is a thread on the topic. https://lemmy.world/post/18073070
I feel inclined to point out that even in the context of Christian myth, God said he would destroy the world again with fire after "Noah's reboot" (actually God's reboot, he just spared Noah), he just said he wouldn't use water next time. This isn't really a shower thought so much as it is a fact of Christian myth. God said he'd return and destroy the world multiple times.
Instead of "with an algorithm" say "with a recommendation algorithm". Algorithm is a very generic term that can mean anything.
Re 1: It's just a meme, you don't look at comedians and accuse them of lying. Also, it says "what can happen", not that it did.
It's not like I notice it more when I have a frame rate counter turned on, I'm just not questioning how bad or how often the drops are when I have it enabled.
Around maybe 40 or so I start to notice it. 50 and higher I'm content. My monitor only supports 60 Hz. Around 20 or less I'm annoyed. It's tolerable for turn based games though. Not enjoyable, just tolerable.
If they want me to watch they need to add power ups. At least a banana peel would be nice.
It's not that it's "too hard", it's that even a tiny set back for something that someone is already hesitant to do can be enough to make them not do it. It's just easier to call that "hard" or "confusing" than say "even a tiny set back for something that someone is already hesitant to do can be enough to make them not do it."
You have links to posts, but not the community. I know it sounds like I'm just being overly pedantic, but with the way federation works you can't know where a community is without the instance. You only ever call it ITAP, not [email protected].
You have to think of it from a micro blogging perspective. Imagine I have a ton of followers and have created a culture of them attacking anyone I attack. It makes more sense how it is bullying in that context.
Edit: Also, to be clear, I'm not arguing against this feature, just explaining how it can be used for bullying.
I don't want users adding their own editorial takes.
The bot used the same site for its ratings, so yes.
