That’s an interesting algorithm!

IMO the Lemmy scaled sort would be ok if it wasn’t as powerful.

Try the scaled sort on PieFed.social, the amplification isn’t as strong and I just tweaked it to filter out bot posts.

Yeah, don’t do that.

You can follow PieFed users on Mastodon though - put the url of their profile into the search on Mastodon then click follow.

Sexual anxiety, in all its forms, is a big part of the fascist formula. It ties into and reinforces the patriarchy stuff, the othering, the racism.

Maan that’s a naff music video, Dogg. I accept your penance, welcome back to humanity.

hell yeah

Ask your admins about that - PieFed has that feature but only admins can do it and it’s instance-wide.

That could happen in the future but at the moment and in the past surely we lost more mods as a result of their community being dead than from their community being too active. But we don’t hear from them because they feel rejected and like they failed so they slink away quietly.

99% of communities need more content, not less.

Cloudflare caching can solve this. Cache based on the user agent.

I’ve been thinking about adding Q&A features to PieFed for a while… Initially just the ability to set a comment as the solution to a post and then give that comment more emphasis in the UI. What else do we need? Maybe display the number of solution comments on peoples profile.

Shoot yourself to own the libs.

Ok then?

Install a floppy drive. No one gonna steal a computer with one of those.

Yes, and, if you were using piefed.social there would be a little red warning icon next to any post that links to the daily star, with a popup saying “Tabloid”.

Yes, you’re right. I didn’t fully think through all the implications.

Federation, it’s magic.

But yeah, this means Lemmy comments would never be boosted or highlighted because it wouldn’t be federating the new data. Bit of a problem!

So every comment would have a quote? lol

If clients want the get into an adversarial relationship with the project they’re piggybacking off, they will lose.

JavaScript. Attach a click handler event to the article link, save a cookie with the post id in it.

The proposed solution assumes a linear relationship between number of votes and number of comments. But depending on the post there might not be much to say. Especially with bad content.
