How can i hide this post

Did it even start as that? Or did Reddit just bought it and put it away and made something completely different?

SAME its happened on Reddit where I would have a back and forth w someone where we disagreed but it was respectful, and then in the middle of it I’d notice the other person’s comments being -1 even new ones. Meaning someone who isnt in the convo would start downvoting the other person, and I’d be like ‘what if they think I did it? What if that damages a mutual understanding they were close to reaching? What if that turns them off from considering a different point of view bc they assume I’m doing it and that I’m hostile?’ Then sometimes I’d be like “sorry someone is downvoting you its not me”

Everyone, on kbin u can see who boosted , downvoted/reduced, or upvote/favourited any comment by pressing “more” then “activity”. For posts it’s at the bottom of the comment section

Yea is good to know. I knew that early bc someone said that someone else accosted them after they reduced/downvoted one of their posts

Yea tbh i respect it, ive been off twitter for like a year it was just nsfw posting anyway. but people are like “switch from that thing to this thing” then like “why did u expect this thing to be like that thing?!” like ??? Bc u claimed it was an alternative? So no wasnt expecting something so different. Would u expect a sugar alternative NOT to be sweet? If u bought a sugar alternative and it was just straight up salty youd be pretty surpised no? Ya it might not taste exactly like sugar but is pretty close and can be used the same way usually. Thats what makes it an alternative not just something else. I dont mind much tho bc like I said i wasnt even that active on twitter and it was just for posting nsfw not really following ppl or stuff.

One time i think r/darkhumor did a while ago like make random people mods (or is it r/darkjokes ??) and… yea lol

I think is just that it depends on the person, like some ppl might be less open than others bc thats just how they are whether or not they were ND. Maybe thats just how hise personality is or how his traits manifest

This is a good point. Because even websites which replaced others, oftentimes the older one is still there. Like even Digg still alive after Reddit got more popular. Some people say Tumblr’s dead but its really not especially for specific interests like games. The success of you isnt based on the failure of someone else, and its important to remember and not become cross because reddit still has users. Especially its been only like 10 days and a lot have already gone onto other sites.

Now that i read it: i saw some ppl here wonder about bots posting comments or maybe downvoting, bc of apparently a lot of comments being against the protest suddenly more than before? And more downvotes on comments about it? If really bots are being used for this, will that also contribute to the traffic metric like a normal user would?

But that said im not sure if theyre bots, but i did see some people mentioned that they thought there’s some false accounts speaking on Reddit’s side.

Im commenting before reading: I wonder if traffic’ll go up a lot from r/place tomorrow. I dont plan to participate know some ppl even who are staying away from Reddit plan to participate in r/place to put a protest message. But what I wondered if Reddit trying to ensure the mothly activity for June look the same as other months so the dip was not so noticeable. But how much does activity usually increase when r/place happened before? (If at all)

But ik also some ppl said theyre leaving Reddit June 30th, so maybe itll look different then.
