Everybody upvote Luigi content! Get banned! Leave reddit! Reddit crumbles! Fuck reddit! Go Luigi! Lemmy grows! Centralized social media dies! I eat a burrito. That last one wasn’t really on topic, but it’s happening anyways! I’m hungry.
Friendly reminder that almost all news media outlets and social media platforms are owned by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals and they are in full control of the algorithm that feeds you content, so you’ll likely never see anything that is critical of them or advocates for them to have less power or influence than they do.
This is the 2025 version of “The revolution won’t be televised”.

Or just open the thread on an mbin instance. Here’s everyone that upvoted this thread.
Edit: Downvotes (reduces) are less exposed, but as you said, someone can just run a fedi instance that exposes them to everyone.
I think all reactions should be exposed.

Yes, Lemmyverse will fragment, so it’s important to choose sufficiently permissive instances or even run your own.
I feel like there’s a difference between various moderators power-tripping on their own little fiefdoms, and a site wide policy.
Well that’s just straight up fucking bonkers.
Which is why I’m here!
Reddit is turning into an American-dominated oligarchy. That’s why I moved to Lemmy. Hi everyone!
Reddit; hear no evil, see no evil, upvote no evil
I actually came here today because of this! So far so happy with Lemmy
I accidentally upvote, so even if I undo it, I think it’s only a matter of time. Plus they didn’t even think about edited posts. It may not start off with affecting a lot of people but may grow that way. It is what is pushing me to lemmy and I hope to join you guys for good convo!
It’s so awesome seeing all these new people here bailing from reddit. Welcome!
I just created a Lemmy account because of this stupid policy. Republicans/Conservatives can spew all manner of hate without consequence and we upvote “Elbows Up” (a hockey term BTW) and we get banned? Screw that.
Left because any form of critique gets you a ban. People rather look away from problems so they can say they don’t see any.
Why I’m here on Lemmy now lol.
