I have a 265 comment upvote. That's like 30% of the lemmy population.
I've got a 118 and I'm pretty sure I'm almost a cult leader now.
200 here and it was
porn
Foodporn, something i coocked and ate
584 here!
But it was during the Reddit exodus and an off-the-cuff complainpost about something that I didnโt miss from Reddit.
My friend uses reddit religiously still. And keeps sending me links to posts there. So, I send him lemmy posts.
200 here
Coocked, that's some new word
I got 141 once, that's 3 digits. Another 3 digit number is 999 which is half way there to 1998 which is 2k anyway. So I basically got 2k and I am famous on Lemmy AMA.
Questions:
- How did you get this good at math?
- Is someone with a post with 142 upvotes even more famous than you or is that impossible?
SatanMCF got a -185 vote once, and I presume that wasn't its bottom. (he's against OHS)
Show me.
Hey, it's happened once in the past month!
MAU is currently at about 45k, up from the low point of about 30k six months ago. The exodus spike subsided over a long time but now that users that didn't stick have been shed, you can see the user base growing again, though slowly.
Bro casually mentioned whole lemmy population
This feels like our mascot, no further questions
I'm honored any time a comment passes 10
Edit: I wake up and I am honored
This man is a hero. Cherish him.
'tis the highest honour
What's nice here is that the upvote to comment ratio is pretty low compared to reddit and other platforms, meaning one upvote here means a lot more than one upvote on reddit.
Also each post sparks cool and unique discussions so you get more out of reading and participating in the comment section.
And that's why I love this place
True. To me, Lemmy feels somewhat more like the old vBulletin forums I used to browse 15 years ago.
Each upvote is also less likely to be a bot.
The highest level of achievement is missing: Getting only two downvotes on Stackoverflow
You forgot 'getting 200 upvotes on PornHub for that episode of SpongeDick RoundPants'...
/s
My best post has 343 and my best comment has 78 upvotes. I feel useful :)
Honestly I got like 300 something on a progress photo and it sent my confidence to the moon. Prettiest I've ever felt.
I feel you
I got 2.7k on a post, but I just got lucky.
Getting 10 million likes on YouTube is astronomically more difficult than any of the others
Edit: For reference, the most liked YouTube video on the platform only has x5 that amount, at 53 million likes and 8.5 billion views.
Not saying getting 10 mil likes is easy, because it's not, but that ratio of likes to views is pretty low in your example. Mr beast has 30 mil likes for a video with 150 mil views, for example. (Which, in all fairness, has a much higher ratio than average, but still)
Wild. I would've thought it to be a MrBeast video, not a music song to be the highest upvoted one.
I got 1k on a post and that kept me going for a few days.
Yeah, except if you are a member of a troll bot farm. Lemmy allows easy creation of accounts and even networks of it so upvotes mean nothing.
I haven't experienced bot presence on Lemmy nearly as much as other platforms. It feels like Reddit years ago: small, but tight communities.
Why would one though? All the bots are on Twitter now because in order to fight Bots, Elon encouraged massive abuse of bots and ChatGPT with his new monetization scheme that earns you money the more impressions and engagement you get on your posts.
I assume this is how it is, idk I'm new here
Before this post I didn't think the population of Lemmy has reached 2k
Old meme
Can't be that old, Lemmy was even more minuscule until about a year ago.
