Yeah… I guess stimulants today were truly stimulating looking by the white hot intensity of my comments lol

ommgg, they are unreadable, so exhausting to even look at

Wooo, that’s super cool. Do I have any tags? Tell me tell me. Make a pink one

Tho these tags are shared yes? Imagine shared community built tags like some yelp reviews of people. Actually that’s a terrible idea so it will probably happen.

I don’t talk to anyone lower than 7 or who was marked by users as <opposite political party>

Better yet. Automatically ban anyone with lower than 5

Ugh too much coffee, too many stimulants

Still it sucks so that’s probably the future. you can’t even opt out because even if you don’t have the AR glasses everyone else has.

The only hope for the future is to be a hacker. Achieve a cozy AI-proof job as a security expert and use the skills to enhance your life. If you are able to find new exploits that will always be valuable skill netting cash one white hat way or black hat another and rather hard to replicate for LLMs which excel at repetitive patterns. So whether you are making wannacry 2.0 or blackmailing companies into hiring you I think this is relatively future proof area.

What is this ‘evil’ flair stuff please do tell

The problem I think is that users do not distribute votes based on “quality” but by how much they like the content. Which is only the same in some people

It’s the same as with democracy, in theory we should elect quality politicians but we elect those we like

But hey this is long clear I guess since the implementation of Reddit decade ago

Seeking validation apparently is core human trait so I am not sure if it is possible to avoid it at all. Still as you probably know social media corporations keep us hooked to their crack using it and amplifying the base value

Funnily, ironically some Lemmy apps copy Reddit UX (that was designed by psychology experts) and thus make it more addictive than it is on the web app.

Best bet to avoid social candy crack is to use lemmy from terminal if that is possible, or default site

Just value content

It’s because Reddit specifically optimizes the site so that upvotes give you the maximum dopamine and keep you hooked on it like a crack. Most corporate social media thrive on keeping their users hooked through cheap tricks.

Lemmy Marxist Leninist Stalinist Maoist dev on the other hand doesn’t care or isn’t even able to do this because he doesn’t have an army of psychology experts to design it that way

So no you don’t get anything out of karma but your brain thinks you do and every aspect of the site is built to maximise this. I hate it

They do seem fundamentally limited somehow. With all the bazillion watts they are cheap imitation at best compared to mere 20 Watts of human brain

I am sure you can get a loyal customer discount, after all you were a moderator

Great comment, great moderation. Also by the way it has come to my attention that your instance bans/warns users that merely upvote discovery hate posts? Or was it some other Star Trek instance?

Invite only instances are even worse because of constant fear of banhammer treatment for wrongthink and then making second account is kinda hard

Surprise, surprise. Some chunk of Reddit annoyances stem from kids running around amok.

Then moderators make many stupid rules to try to increase quality and overmoderation takes hold

In short time it becomes increasingly annoying to browse let alone post to get past the anti teen rules filter. Not to mention all the young hormones commenting some stuff at you like it is school break slander or smh

One can always change instance though so it isn’t doom and gloom. The kids will have Lemmy.world and nice, enjoy it and have fun. It is the club penguin of Lemmy instances. We knew this would happen
