It sure would be nice to have a different upvote/downvote culture. Not sure how to foster that.

Upvote for helpful, funny, otherwise valuable contribution.

Downvote for incivility, spam, off-topic, incorrect.

This will probably sound hilariously ironic, but maybe an agreed-upon AI model?

Nothing's going to be perfect, and any weakness can be counter-exploited by other AI, but maybe just maybe it could be a start?

I upvote a lot of things I disagree with that add to the conversation.

Respect, and fist-bump. You seem a bit rarish with that. ^^

I do appreciate you clearly marking off AI-generated content as such, and you putting effort into the community.

Thank you! I've been very careful to do it only 3x so far (and every time marking it explicitly) across ~400 posts, which is why I was taken aback by the hostile reaction. Also, whether one likes it or not, AI is here to stay, and my experience with ChatGPT was amazingly positive and helpful. So let's not shoot the messenger too much, okay?

Oh, and also-- IMO Lemmy badly, BADLY needs a tool like RES (Reddit Enhancement Suite) which allows one to make running notes on other users, short of completely blocking them or whatever. I mean, we may not have cumulative karma across Lemmy, but there's gotta be some way to create a 'kind-space' for ourselves, no?
