I decided to make an account on libretechni it's federated and it has no down votes just want to see how that works out
I use microwave for a lot of things. Also the rep would bring me back to the microwave
I like the idea of an instance not having down votes that way. I assume that you could go to another instance and participate and no one could down vote you
Yeah I can definitely say Lemmy can get toxic. I thought with Redding your karma was a status symbol and indicated to other redditors on how to treat you or even if they wanted to engage with you. Along with you account age

Lol I can see it's controversial that I voted for stien, but I'm not ashamed, I'm proud that I did.
But I'm not afraid to be who I am and I don't want to have to conform for other strangers just to use a service. I'd rather we be ourselves and celebrate that we are here on this app
Yeah I learned that you can't say about a Foss developer wasting resources even when they do fundraiser and apply for grants
I had a fun time trying to explain why I voted for stien, I had to tell people the president part of the ballot is the one I have the least impact on and If people were to convince me not vote stien that is leave that part blank
Lol I have pointed out that Russia hasn't dropped nuke in Ukraine but America has dropped nukes on Japan.
This helps probably should post it for posterity
We have dms?
