no_nothing demands only original trash for cm002 to regurgitate
There's a simple reason why reposts will always happen, never stop: different people have seen different things. Your reposts are other people's never-seen-before content.
insert xkcd 10,000 people obligatory everything is a repost
As long as I don't see "thanks stranger" and "happy cake day" I'm ok
I accept reposts are a part of the fediverse because every instance will have the same damned memes and since I'm federated with quite a few of them, I'm just gonna have to deal with it. Just my take.
I feel like apps could probably aggregate posts with the same links somehow and allow users to flip between comment threads; but I have no idea how to make that work on the backend.
I'm not much of a dev at all but Id o use AI to help me build app infrastructure. If nothing else, it teaches you how python and react work.
I see we got reddit's whining about reposts.
Bitching about reposts is of course very original
I fail to see how sharing memes is a bad thing. Lemmy is a great community, its leagues better than what Reddit was, even in its heyday, and certainly better than the shit-buffet it has become.
While OC is great, it's really tough to make, especially at the frequency needed to provide new content and keep people interested. Further, 90% (or something) of people on here lurk, with the remaining 10% split between commentators and posters.
Don't like it? Vote with your feet.
If reposting memes, then why not do a quick reverse image search and grab a better version, as well? It seriously only takes mere seconds most of the time.
Tineye works great, but there's also Google reverse image search when that doesn't provide the results you hope for.
Not only does this generally improve the experience for everyone, but it also makes the platform much more appealing to outsiders that care about quality and will drive more quality users to Lemmy. On top of quality, but also things like links to and information about the creators, which is especially important for things like comics because the more people that know where to find the creators the more those creators can keep making their art.
Obviously, I do my best to contribute to this, but the more people that join in the better.
But the jpeg artifacts make it funnier!
hi, yes, piece of shit here
where do I get more of them cute doggy memes with the subtle threats in those stylistic fonts
Also, like what breed of dog is that
I feel like you're probably joking but that's a possum, not a doggo.
I was gonna make a joke about not trying to pet one of those or you might get rabies, but it actually seems that they have natural resistance to rabies and are generally pretty chill animals. TIL.

Managed to confuse someone besides myself while high
fuck yeah I think that could be an achievement
business acumen or something idk I'm high as fuck
tldr yeah was just being silly I know those aren't dogs.
...
While looking for an opossum meme on my phone, not finding it between all the Luigi Mangione memes, and taking one from Google images instead, I had an introspective thought. Apologies if the confusion thing came off as rude. I did not intend to insult you, I just intended on celebrating my silly.
With high doses of cannabis, for me, it's "think fun thoughts = feel good feelings". Sorry if I made you feel bad feelings. You got a really cool instance name, if that could possibly lift the mood and undo emotional damage. Also, I'm not just saying that. It's cyberpunk af which is sick as hell homie
(As caused by my mind-altering chemical intake)
(That previous additional caption joke was a coincidence, I did not know what the caption was before writing the accessibility description)
God damn you really do be litty right now.
I didn't take it as rude or insulting at all, you're just overthinking and paranoid bc you're high af.
Plus I've already taken an immense amount of abuse on Lemmy because I'm an admin, people always end up popping off on me no matter what I do. I see you've been here a long time so you may remember a few months after the APIcalypse when trolls were spamming the most disgusting stuff and I had to keep banning them as quickly as I could. This guy took it personally 😂
Possums are awesomes! Possums eat ticks and other stuff you don't want around and are immune to rabies. Good animal to share space with.
Then down vote it? Isn't that the point of that button? I'm assuming a big problem with Reddit was they wanted controversial posts seen which took away from the power of down voting but hopefully Lemmy doesn't? I don't actually know though
Ahhh, the rallying cry of "just downvote it". I'd insert the "this your first time?" gif here if I could. Leaving a community to self moderate invariably turns into a popularity contest, and then when one group eventually takes over, an echo chamber usually filled with the same regurgitated spam. "If you don't like it just downvote it" or it's reverse "well it has a lot of upvotes, so someone must like it"(welcome to why we have so many bots today....) always ends up catering to the terminally online at the detriment of the average person. People far too often will speak with absolute confidence about things they have never even experienced, but because it's well formatted, it's sent to the top. The Gell-Mann Amnesia effect describes this in part.
eh Im just happy yall are here
Moderation is a necessary evil. Otherwise everything becomes /r/Funny with different decor.
Perfect post 5/7 score! The narwalls bacon at midnight! Did your mom break both your arms?
sigh unzips
Don’t forget Natalie Portman covered in hot grits along with Natalie Dormer and a clone of the former.
Isn't Natalie Portman and grits originally from Slashdot?
It happened closer to the construction of the Great Pyramids than to today.
:(
You might be seeing posts from the 196 community, which recently split up (personally, I had the old ones blocked and then due to it splitting, the new 196 community showed up in my feed).
The 196 community is very much about quantity-over-quality, when it comes to posts, and as such reposts do happen often, too.
No shade on that, but it's also not for everyone, so yeah, you might want to just block those communities.
196 wouldn't be as bad if the user base across all communities were higher. But yeah, I've blocked that community. It's a nice community but it adds too much noise.
There's stuff I wouldn't see otherwise because I'm not on other networks. I'm fine with bringing stuff here from elsewhere.
Yeah, switching from reddit to lemmy gives a "old internet" wibe: actual people, most of them technically inclined. But with more adoption, these people get diluted by all other kinds of folks.
Same happened with cypto scene. It started with cythography entusiasts, but now it is mostly tech bros.
Lemmyers are just redditors that have marginally more care for privacy. The venn diagram is nearly a circle
Lemmyers
The official term is Lemmings.
Speak for yourself ha.
I've enabled option that won't show read posts, cool thing actually
How to about that bot that reposts r/buildapc? What even is the point of reposting people's questions if they they're on another platform and won't see the it?
I have blocked most bots that regurgitate Reddit content, you should try it because it's make for a more genuine experience when browsing All.
Kinda like the guy that was posting daily screenshots of his gaming sessions that spawned like, three copycats this past summer?
I like all of it.
