I’ve been posting a lot lately But I seem like I’m controversial no matter what I post. I came from Reddit with over 2 million karma during the API controversy. Should I keep posting or give up on Lemmy?
What you should do is stop caring about “karma”, it has no value (even more so here, it’s not even a thing). Don’t do things to get likes, do them because you like doing them and/or think they can help others.
Over 2 million karma. Ooh La La dork jk
All posting here is useful at this point
I generally appreciate what you’re doing
I have you at +10, so you’re at least posting things I find meaningful. That being said, you post a lot of political things, so expect to bring many sides of the conversation to light. The fediverse has more types than Reddit.
how do you score another person? I didn’t know that was a feature
On the voyager app there is a feature that shows the upvotes you’ve given someone (as a green number next to their name). Unless they are a troll, in which case it would probably be a negative number and red.
It’s nothing crazy. He just spends a couple of weeks following you around and going through your stuff when you aren’t home.
Can ya tell 'em to stop moving my bloody remote then!
Only you can answer that.
None of us are useful to Lemmy because Lemmy is not “useful.” Lemmy is a shit-pile of all of our combined thoughts and efforts. So, while no social media site is “useful,” Lemmy brings us a place to be entertained and informed/misinformed.
Most of your posts are shit. Most of my posts are shit. While we each usually shit in our own corners, we occasionally look at each other’s shit and say, “hmmm… This shit stinks.” Or, “this shit is a little nutty and I like that!” And even less frequently, we cross paths while shitting and our shit combines to create a new type of shit that other people can enjoy.
So, don’t try to measure your Lemmy “usefulness” based on karma, and instead focus on the shit. I often appreciate your shit, and your username always gives me a chuckle. Whether anyone likes it or not, all of our shit makes Lemmy’s shit the shit it is.
There is is, listen to uncle/auntie fartographer.
Well that was shitty. I like it. Thank you Sir or Madame Fartographer.
I see people complain about you a lot, but I’ve never felt like anything you’ve contributed to Lemmy has been negative or harmful.
Let the haters hate. Block exists for a reason. If those losers blocked you and every other superposter who provides content they’d complain that nobody posts anything.
As you said, you can’t make everyone happy no matter what you do. Just do what you feel like you want to do right now.
I appreciate you, @return2ozma@lemmy.world and if you left us it would be a major loss.
I pay no attention to down-voters. The growing popularity of the fediverse brings as many bad people with it as good ones.
Thank you! I’ll keep on keeping on
Your post history seems positive though, maybe I’m sorting wrong
I appreciate you mate 🫂
Thank you
People are always going to have varying opinions, that doesn’t mean they have to break up. We are going to butt heads sometimes, that doesn’t mean we also cant tell each other how nice those jeans make each other’s ass look. So I’m going to say you filling them out real nice. Haha, on a serious note, I hope your doing well. Inbox is always open if you need to rant to someone
sounds to me, you take social media too seriously
Let go of the thought that updoots matter and you will find harmony.
When you know the crowd downvotes are more satisfying than upvotes.
