removed for being off topic, also all nsfw content on this site is by default 18+

I don't think you can equate downvotes coming back to one rude comment, as I've said before please report any rude comments, they will be removed.

I sympathize with the satisfaction of seeing a post doing well and that being affected by downvotes, and I will keep what you've said in mind. I think the benefit of pushing spam down will be greater than the effect it has on real posters, but that has yet to be seen, like I said this is a trial run. If you do keep posting please do report any apparent downvote brigading and I will definitely re-visit the issue.

Ok, but not all your posts will get downvotes like that.

If you use an app like sync or something similar some of them will use imgur by default, it seems like you figured out the solution though, which is to upload to one of the other platforms and then paste the link in the "link" section rather than uploading the image/video directly through the app

please read the rules and follow the post title structure in the future.

You've been added to those communities!

you've been added to all but !anriokita@lemmynsfw.com , the mod there is active on lemmy. @RogueSensei@lemmynsfw.com do you need help modding? would you like to transfer the community to @AlphaBetaGammaTheta@lemmynsfw.com ?

would you like some help modding these communities?

I agree, discoverability of these these types of things needs to be better. Perhaps we can implement something like that, or have a community of the week or something. This is a very good point.

Just subbed on Patreon! Question, are you holding off on upgrading the instance because of the issues with the search?
