I love interacting with you all very much, and I know there’s a lot of important political issues in the world going on right now. I love my Linux Mint setup, I support Palestine and trans people, and I’ve blazed through all of OG Star Trek, TNG, Voyager, and am now on DS9.

But I also want to discuss Luka to the Lakers and Kendrick calling Drake a pedophile and getting 5 Grammy’s, a tour, and a Superbowl halftime show out of it, you know? I wanna talk about your country’s Eurovision entries. Am I just not in the right communities?

    Anything black/“urban” generally gets heavily downvoted on Lemmy. Haven’t figured out why. With all the other heavy virtue signaling you’d think it would also be pushed.

    It’s one of the many things that aggravates me about my experience here. I went back to Reddit after over a year of only spending it here.

    It has gotten better though.

      I’ve noticed this too, but I didn’t really want to say anything because I don’t want to get into internet drama. I’m overwhelmed from this post as is lol.

      If you block a person or instance, does it also remove their votes from the totals you see? If not, is there any way to do that?
