Didn’t say it was a hugbox, said it fosters division.
Does it? I don’t see how.
I don’t know whether piefed has less spam or not, and whether that’s by volume or percentage, and why. I haven’t seen any evidence favoring either platform.
Piefed gets the same spam, but Piefed can catch the spammers and report them to Lemmy admins easier. That’s what I mean here.
There is no way Lemmy would triple in size in a day. Why would they build for something that would never happen? That’s like ordering three pizzas for a party when you only need one.
Of course it wouldn’t. My point was I am thinking of scale here when looking at these admin tools.
I still oppose the low-karma feature on moral and ideological grounds. Voting is easily manipulated, so any system based on it is also easily manipulated.
Well public voting on the fediverse mitigates that as people using alts or engaging in brigading can be often caught, are often caught, and community and instance banned for it.
It was clear to me that site was for piefed.
It outlines his philosophy, but he doesn’t state he will enforce the same ideology on other instances with some iron fist.
It increases division for all the reasons I already outlined. If you don’t see it that way I don’t know how to explain my point of view any better than I already have.
I don’t see any philosophy, I see a list of reasons the developer of piefed believes their platform is better than Lemmy. Yes, each instance can adjust those settings, but they go into it with these heavy-handed suggestions straight from the developer. From the wording, anyone joining the fediverse for the first time through Piefed comes in associating those instances with nazis. I think that’s intentional.
You can’t say if people with alts or who brigade are often caught. And, “often” is not “always,” which means voting can still be manipulated. Hell, even if you caught everyone with an alt, votes can change by community or the time of day. An opinion that gets lauded in one community might be downvoted to hell in another. Better to not have a flagging system, let people have their own opinions without labelling “bad” users.

just go back to doing your trolling on reddit where there are people dumb enough to listen to you
