    Didn’t say it was a hugbox, said it fosters division.

    I don’t know whether piefed has less spam or not, and whether that’s by volume or percentage, and why. I haven’t seen any evidence favoring either platform.

    There is no way Lemmy would triple in size in a day. Why would they build for something that would never happen? That’s like ordering three pizzas for a party when you only need one.

    I still oppose the low-karma feature on moral and ideological grounds. Voting is easily manipulated, so any system based on it is also easily manipulated.

    It was clear to me that site was for piefed.

      Does it? I don’t see how.

      Piefed gets the same spam, but Piefed can catch the spammers and report them to Lemmy admins easier. That’s what I mean here.

      Of course it wouldn’t. My point was I am thinking of scale here when looking at these admin tools.

      Well public voting on the fediverse mitigates that as people using alts or engaging in brigading can be often caught, are often caught, and community and instance banned for it.

      It outlines his philosophy, but he doesn’t state he will enforce the same ideology on other instances with some iron fist.
