wait, you guys read usernames?

[-] RampageDon@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

I tag a lot of people with nicknames. Really makes them stand out a lot more, and when they do the type of content and patterns stick out a lot more.

What app are you using that lets you tag? I love Eternity but if I can get a similar experience with user tagging I'd be pretty excited to try it

[-] RampageDon@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Connect and Voyager both let me

[-] jack@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Can you explain how to do this on Voyager? Can't seem to figure it out.

[-] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

I tag propaganda accounts all the time using Boost and Connect. Connect is FOSS, Boost was a Reddit app. You really do notice patterns.

I think the Fediverse will fail of regular people don't push back against the propaganda. There's no budget for countering misinformation.

I read this comment several times and I still don't understand it. Stand out for what? What content and patterns?

[-] Predalien@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

You can put your own nickname next to the names of other users, to catalog them/ mark trolls or whatever. That seems to be what Don is doing inbetween Rampages

[-] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I wasn't even aware this was a thing

[-] RampageDon@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Tags are much more noticeable than user names. It tends to stick out more from the rest of the post and makes you notice who the poster is. After seeing them enough you tend to get a feel for the type of content they post about.

Yeah, there's a lot of power posters here. PugJesus is an example from the opposite camp, calling out the anti-Democrat propaganda from the two OP mentioned.
