Looks like it’s still in the planning stages. But looks like a cool project.
Once again, @catloaf@lemm.ee is to be found on the list of downvoters. So, it’s not just what I say or do, even when someone else talks about my project, they are there.
Seriously, what is the problem you have with me?
I have no idea who you are, so any slight against your person is purely your imagination.
I was curious, though, so I scrolled a bit on your profile. Out of over four hundred posts you’ve made, I saw I had downvoted three. The only comment of yours that I saw that I voted on, I upvoted.
I think the other comment about obsessiveness may be right.
Edit: and to be clear, I downvoted your comment here because it is off-topic in this post.
Can you please then explain why you downvoted this post?
Because OP titled it only “Fediverser” and gave essentially no further info. To borrow from reddit’s FAQ: “Remember that adage about not judging a book by its cover? No one actually follows it. So choose your title carefully — make it useful, provide context, and be descriptive.” I feel that high-quality posts should be elevated, and low-quality posts should be reduced.
Ok. Thank you for clearing that up. I still think that it would be better if you wrote a comment explaining your issue with the post to give people a chance to improve it.
I am not catloaf but I have a problem with people literally combing vote logs to call users out in comments. That’s toxic verging on obsessive.
Absolutely not the way to act as the face of a project. It accomplishes nothing besides making you look incredibly petty and dissuades people from supporting your work.
No need to comb anything. Instance admins get to see who voted on any item, right in the UI. And it’s been going for months: if I have a comment or post with a single downvoter, 90% of the cases it’s my friend here.
It’s so weird to keep track of that, and petty on both sides if it has been happening for months like you say.
I also think you are placing way too high importance on vote counts, and specifically pinging people is not the way to handle your disapproval.
No, I do not care about the counts, karma or anything like this. I just like to keep track of repeat, serial downvoters that do not participate in the discussion and resort to passive-aggressive behavior.
Well, you are resorting to actively aggressive behavior in response to internet points.
Yes, I don’t mind dealing with conflict. People being assertive, and even aggressive when arguing their point? All fine by me. As long as you are willing to put yourself out there when criticizing/attacking someone, I can respect you. That does go out the window when people hide themselves behind a mob or “private” voting.
