    i had a similar suspicion since i get the same thing and the speed at which it happens makes it clear that they’re using something like an API.

    that means that the admins of .world are aware of it and turning a blind eye towards it; which is surprising considering how they’ve publicly called out other admins from other instances for doing similar underhanded things.

    i expect that from conservatives; not lemmy-ites.

      You make some good points. I don’t know much about scripts or bots or API. But it is weird how quickly many of my posts and comments get downvoted, even in other communities. And in fact, many in those other communities often wonder why I get so many downvotes since it’s unrelated to content or context.

      So you may be right. But I don’t care. The downvoters are just mad because I have different views than them.

      It won’t stop me from posting or comment. Thanks friend! :)

        i bring it up because reddit didn’t used to care about up/down votes either; but now they’re a requirement for many of it subs and i wonder if .world is going to go the same way to prevent messages like this from getting to their users.

            I mean you attack and troll people with words, how is them doing the same with votes any different? Seems a bit hypocritical.

                Come on man, you said them, you know. This whole act is just reinforcing how insufferable you are. My whole interaction with you was you just being annoying and cringe. Then you’re like “why are people upset with me”, because I only interacted with you once and it was enough to know the kind of person you are.

                  Let’s be clear—our very first interaction started with you insulting me by calling me an “edgelord,” which is a blatant provocation. As seen in your link: https://lemmy.world/comment/12909326

                  You initiated the conversation by insulting me, and now you’re falsely accusing me of trolling when I was simply responding to your attack.

                  You set the tone for that exchange, but you’re acting as if I’m the one in the wrong. It’s weird for you to insult someone and then play the victim when they respond.

                  Do you think it’s acceptable to personally attack someone in your very first interaction with them, even tho they haven’t attacked you?!

                  That’s your argument for calling me a troll? You’re saying I’m a troll because I responded to your unprovoked insult to me?! And I still didn’t personally attack you after that. lol

                    Yeah, because you said something cringe. You then tried to have a convo and as soon as I did back you just trolled.

                    You set the tone with your horrible comment. If someone says something horrible you can’t expect hugs and kisses buddy. You really can’t help but play the victim can you?
