5·3 years agoNot quite. An upvote on Lemmy is a favorite on mastodon. However, all posts on Lemmy look like they are a “boost” by the community when viewing from mastodon.

151·3 years agoGood stuff! Thanks for all that you guys do for Lemmy and the open internet
Doing good! Really happy with where I’m at in life currently.
I don’t go out of my way to get news, so social media/Lemmy. Except for local news, which I do follow more closely. But that’s it.

Also noticing. Seem to to away after a few minutes/tries.

Hate speech is defined by the Cambridge Dictionary as “public speech that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group based on something such as race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation”.
It looks like someone posted a bunch of posts (all at once) to the !gundeals community. Its not ads, just an individual posting a bit too much.
5·3 years agoSounds like it sorts out the right kind of people? I’m not aware of anyone actually asking you to write an essay, no one would do that. 2 short answer questions does not an essay make.
It’ll drop a little, but to a significantly higher level than it was before.
Right. Isn’t this best case scenario for Musk? Maximum spending cuts to govt
