I found this community and thought it was kinda interesting.

"Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. "

An attempt to start an index of communities on Lemmy for people to find new topics.

They changed the algorithm on Dec 7, 2016.

Best guess, based off the vote count differences of those two days, is that if you see a vote with 100,000 count, it's likely closer to 20,000 count (divide by roughly 5 or so).

There was a post about it by KeyserSosa on Dec 6, so it's not some conspiracy or anything.

I figured YSK.

“I’m not interested in anyone who is moving further away from the center,” said Cindy Bass, a Pennsylvania committee member from Philadelphia. “The center is where we have to be.”

They're not going to change a thing unless people make them.

Find your local state delegate and personally tell them how you feel a centrist is only going to guarantee another Republican victory. They are listed here: https://ballotpedia.org/Democratic_National_Committee

Bernie Sanders is working behind the scenes to get a progressive in there but he can't do it alone.

I've seen a few complaints over the past few weeks about there being a lot of psuedoscience, and there has been a fair amount of reports.

I figured it would be a good idea to update the rules on the sidebar to clearly lay out what is and isn't allowed.

I think a tagging system might help to keep down on the spam and elevate real scientific sources. These are just a draft and more rules could be added in the future if they are needed.

Current draft (work in progress, add suggestions in comments):

A community to post scientific articles, news, and civil discussion.

Submission Rules:

1. All posts must be flagged with an appropriate tag and must be scientific in nature. All posts not following these guidelines will be removed.
2. All posts must be peer reviewed and published in a reputable journal, unless flagged as news or discussion. No pseudoscience.
3. No self-promotion, blogspam, videos, or memes. See list of unapproved sources below.

Comment Rules:

1. Civility to other users, be kind.
2. See rule #1.
3. Please stay on the original topic in the post. New topics should be referred to a new post/discussion thread.
4. See rule #1 again. Personal attacks, trolling, or aggression to other users will result in a ban.
5. Report incivility, trolling, or otherwise bad actors. We are human so we only see what is reported.

Flag Options

1. [Peer reviewed]
2. [News]
3. [Discussion]

I'm not on 24/7 but I'll try to update these when I get a chance.

If you can, turn off your phone or computer and go vote!!! If you already voted, tell someone else to vote!!!

Less than 10 hours from now will decide if the US veers toward democracy or fascism.

You never know if you might come down with the flu or have a family emergency on Nov5. Don't take the chance if you can avoid it and vote in person early!
