they won't be able to understand may answer

I assume that "may" is an unintentional mistyping of "my", right?

I definitely agree. I want to point out errors, but the issue is most people do not want errors to be pointed out and see it as nitpicking at best, or an act of aggression at worst.

I disagree that commenting for the sake of commenting is a good idea. Quality over quantity, a single meaningful discussion is superior to a sea of low effort garbage. I also want the fediverse to take off, but not at the cost of adopting modern Reddit culture.

a “good post”, by this metric, is really just a post that baits lots and lots of engagement

Baiting anything is bad.

by thread bumping

Thread bumping is still possible on Reddit-like social media too. Just use a sort that responds to activity, like the Active sort on Mbin or Piefed.

There WAS 1 chick in the fediverse.

The situation took a dark turn recently.

No, they're downvoting because they don't like what the post is saying.

People misusing voting buttons as a like/dlislike button is a well known issue and reality, at least on Reddit. But considering the system works the exact same here, it's no surprise that the same problem persists here as well.

I assume it's due to people not trusting Youtube with false positives. They don't have the best reputation with the rest of their AI moderation stuff.

The notifications are redirecting even Old Reddit users to WWW...

That's not the issue. If you configured your settings correctly (they're per-device and get reset on clearing cookies), www.reddit.com is still old reddit too.

The issue is that neither chat nor notifications respect that. They both enforce shreddit despite oldreddit being configured as the default.

And yes, the only realistic reason is that they're phasing out old reddit by replacing its features one by one by shreddit-exclusive ones.

Considering your wording in the last paragraph

I'm really confused by people's reaction to OP here. I agree that I personally don't share OP's experiences, but what's wrong with that last paragraph? It's not overwhelming at all, so how does it indicate that their writing style is overwhelming? (I know MINE is, no need to point that out)

If people have trouble understanding it, then reading comprehension must really be at rock bottom.

I agree that formatting is important with l proper text length, but this is literally two lines, this isn't in need of bullet points.

If you ask me, anti-propaganda is facts

You know how "woke" (awake; aware of what's going on) is considered a negative by the far right?

Their entire point is to abandon the facts of reality and instead live in a dream world where only their imagination is real. Facts and people who cling to the real world are their enemy to that end.

Notice that while their economic goals are at complete odds with one another, they are both authoritarians.

You're thinking of the political compass there, which has two axes, one being the economic one (left/right) and the other being the Authoritarian (top) vs Libertarian (bottom) axis.

But the left/right most people use is a one-dimensional system which puts everything on that one axis. It's based on how the French parliament used to be set up between the radical left and the aristocratic right.

The point being, the two left/right axes aren't equivalent. I personally also think in the political compass, that's the system we learnt in school, so I'm unclear on what falls where on the basic left/right axis. But Wikipedia has this to say:

While communism and socialism are usually regarded internationally as being on the left, conservatism and reactionism are generally regarded as being on the right.[1] Liberalism can mean different things in different contexts, being sometimes on the left (social liberalism) and other times on the right (conservative liberalism or classical liberalism). Those with an intermediate outlook are sometimes classified as centrists.

Why are people saying this was Reddit's april fools? It clearly says it's made by /r/gamesonreddit, not the admins.

I'm confused about what you're trying to say here. You got warned for violent commentary after making a violent comment? That sounds like it makes perfect sense to me. This isn't a Luigi situation, breaking someone's fingers IS undeniably violence.

Oh, Mbin does have that for domain pages, so it shouldn't be too hard to implement a general one for Mbin. I think rather than it being a feature Mbin is "behind" on, it's probably more that it doesn't fit the vision of the devs and is deliberately kept out.

As an Mbin user: what are you referring to with "comments view"? I assume that's not the comments page of threads (because both have that).

Swiss/Allemanic German. Specifically I speak Zug's dialect.

That's perfect, exactly what I meant to say.

Mer chönd das scho probiere, aber denn müsst mer ja di ganz Ziit en Übersetzer zur Hand ha, wär denn doch nöd die best UX würdi säge. Das würd d'Neuakömmlige nur no meh verschüüche.
