I don’t think this is a good idea. I would prefer the votes of new accounts having a lower impact.
I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as qaz@lemmy.ml until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in systemd/Linux, FOSS, and Selfhosting.

51·13 days agoI checked the images and so far every image I’ve encountered linked to the users’s lemmy instance’s pictrs instance, none were hosted through a custom trackable image host.
Could you please explain what mean with that? Why would the CEO of Pfizer have paid for that?
EDIT 2025-03-26: Bloomcole was referring to the following: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pfizergate. It refers to when von der Leyen directly negotiated a big contract with the CEO of Pfizer with very little transparency and later refused to share any information about it.
Nobody embodies the EU’s elite-driven nature better than its incumbent president, Ursula von der Leyen. And no action of hers embodies its warped excesses better than her decision, in April 2021, to single-handedly sign off on a €35-billion deal for the purchase of 1.8 billion doses of the BioNTech/Pfizer vaccine. According to one analysis, the price per dose she agreed was 15 times higher than the cost of production — meaning that the EU overpaid the vaccines by tens of billions of euros. Adding fuel to the fire, the New York Times later reported that von der Leyen had personally negotiated the deal via a series of text messages and calls with Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla.

35·1 month agoI don’t see any comments when viewing the Lemmy links, am I missing something?
And without the unnecessary

Yes I remember the lemmy.world servers being DDOS’ed every couple of days and having to switch between 3 clients and the webinterface because all of the apps were missing some features. The alternative frontends like photon and tesseract have really improved and imo should be the new defaults.
Microsoft have been endorsing Linux recently for this reason.
I doubt that’s still the reason, I think they endorse it because they’re making a shit ton of money using it on Azure.
Even if the instance doesn’t have any rules about it?
It’s a spammer AFAIK, I considered the possibility of it being used to get IP’s and deanonimize users through the image but it seems this isn’t the case since the image points to a generic pictrs file from a Lemmy instance and most clients / frontends proxy image loading.
Welcome
About €70 for 400 down and 40 up, a landline, and TV with a large amount of channels I don’t watch anyway. It’s not a good deal, but it’s unfortunately currently not possible to use another ISP.
There is a Firefox extension that does automatically (although it seems to be a bit unreliable). Maybe someone can extract that part into a library and make a not with it.
I was wondering the exact same thing
Lemmy has also taken over advertiser focused moderation patterns. A great example is NSFW. What is NSFW exactly? Not safe for work? Why is only that relevant?
NSFW is just used to mark advertiser unfriendly content. Why else group nakedness, violence, sexual content, and death in the same category?
It’s way too vague to be useful, you have no idea if you’re going to see a nipple or a murder.Content warnings like on Mastodon are better, but don’t provide a way to reliably filter out categories. I personally think it would be way better to have specific nested tags for certain types of material.
Here’s the same video on PeerTube
Onderaan is het zelfs gewoon zwart
Oh it appears I did so too
How is saying “Ukraine started the war” not disingenuous?
Imagine if someone teaches them about volunteer work
