Fell down ice skating like four days ago. Not the best skater!

This post got over 20 downvotes and cruel commentary about the submitter's appearance. It was on topic for the community. I don't know about you, but that's exactly what I don't want to disincentivize.

Also, for several months the place was empty. In large part because commenters were nasty and downvotes abused.

As a mod I'd be happy with downvotes turned back on. But I want some kind of enforcement with teeth when community members abuse real human beings. Reposting commercial porn is one thing, who cares about downvotes. But commentary and mass downvote brigades intended to disparage real people who expose their nude bodies for our entertainment should never be allowed here.

That's JMO.

Thanks! He's 8. It gets easier as they get older. Until puberty. Then it just gets all fucked up. Lol

Preparing dinner for my kid. Getting him showered and put to bed. Then some late night work to meet a deadline.

Everybody in Europe needs to go to spas in Budapest. It's medicinal. And required.

Thanks for all your hard work!

As an admin, I guess you know more than me. But the timing of mass downvotes sure suggests coordination.

Hate to say this, but I think removing federated downvote support like Beehaw did might be warranted due to pervasive brigades.

Hey, I've noticed two things since the downtime and migration.

1. NSFW is no longer automatically checked on submissions. I can deal with that, but it used to be automatic here.

2. When I submit a new entry, the submission hangs with a spinning wheel. But I notice that the actual submission goes through. Don't know why the web server just hangs like that. But it is annoying.

Thanks for all your hard work!

Hey, you're an instance admin and this kind of collegial statement is entirely appropriate given your role here.

Me? I'm a newbie here. I don't have much to lose. My assessment of that exchange is: she bonkers. But that's just me.

That exchange is absolutely bonkers. I'm sorry but I have far less respect for Ada after reading that text exchange. Glad I don't use that instance.

Coming here from Lemmynsfw and I see my screenshot did not propagate. It's ok. I'm sure ActivityPub devs will get the unified timeline down sometime. When will everyone switch to Zot?
