+1 to a megathread. Just noticed I didn't receive any notification for replies on this post here

 

For the past few days, I haven't been able to do a global community search. I go to 'Communities' -> click 'all' -> type something and hit 'search', but then I see a red error box popping up, and I end up seeing the Posts search results, not communities.

My wife and I love this show so much!! We binged the first season when we decided to watch it, and have been watching theory videos on YT after every episode of S2!

Now it's that looooong wait until S3, and hoping the writers strike doesn't affect it too much (in terms of both release date and quality)

thing is... in the end, karma doesn't serve as that anyway (indicator of quality). It's so easy to karma farm by (re)posting content (sometimes even stolen) in multiple communities.

In NSFW communities, at least on Reddit, I see SO MANY posts that doesn't fit the community they were posted in, but being upvoted anyway because... well... it's nudity

I loved forums, and we didn't have anything, except for 'total posts' and 'total replies' for users. I like that.

I do like upvoting, but I think karma should be hidden. Maybe if you go to user profile and click a button to see the value. It should not show if you hover over the user in a discussion, like Reddit. This is too much incentive for Karma farming.

I don't like downvotes, and that's the reason I'm on lemmy.one - no downvotes here at all

sort by new in your subscribed communities (or even one specific community). Why would you browse ALL communities?

Also, what does ALL mean in this context? All communities in lemmy.one? All federated?

I never cared about someone's karma. I enjoy not even knowing mine, I guess. I guess the only reason I would want karma would be for hiding users with negative karma from conversations but...

  1. Since I'm all in for not having downvotes, this is a moot point
  2. Probably neonazis don't have negative karma because some people would still downvote them. So hiding users with negative karma would not help much

because I don't want anybody downvoting me on any instance, and I don't want to see downvotes in discussions or have discussions being weighted by downvotes.

exactly. The housing market already sucks for people to be buying a 2nd house specifically to use as AirBnB to profit

I guess people in general prefer this way - which is probably why 99% of Lemmy instances have downvotes enabled. You can choose any one of them :)

For me, it makes me more stressed about posting stuff, specially since you can be downvote bombed just for saying you didn't like X book, or whatever.

It also makes me more stressed when reading comments, for some reason. Either when I see an innocent random comment with negative points - I feel bad for the commenter - or when I end up using it as a disagree button and get more stressed. IDK why.

So for me, not having it is way better. Otherwise I maybe wouldn't even have created a Lemmy account, and used the "opportunity" (Reddit down in flames) to be less online - which I guess would also be a great outcome.

TLDR: some people prefer no downvotes, but most instances allow them. Your user is already on lemmy.ml, so why do you care?

I kinda get it, but why would a post be controversial and at the same time not a reason enough to either report or block the user that posted it?
