Got my first warning from upvoting Luigi.
I will keep upvoting him :)
Back in 2017(?) I got whale whaled for telling a racist to commit seppuku. Would've worded it differently but I don't wholly regret it
I got banned for posting an animated gif of Luigi.
These are the two genders: "tankie" and "other".
That makes me technically trans.
I left Reddit because they killed 3rd party apps. Since that day, they've only gone on to butcher the platform even further.
Joining Lemmy was a damn good decision.
Enshitification drives stock prices. Only the rich care about stock prices and they have no interest in using the platform. The platform dies off a death of a thousand cuts… story as old as time
damn good indeed! plus with a proper app for mastodon and pixelfed we've got it all!
also saying Luigi can be considered flagged too.
Ok. I'm new here. What's a tankie
Edit: tysm everyone for the answers
People who are obsessed with tanks
No you’re thinking of Acoustic people
Sounds right
Hey that’s… accurate but fuck your for calling me out
Freshwater or salt?
Panzer IV my beloved
People that Stan authoritarian countries. The term comes from when the USSR crushed liberation movements with tanks in the Republics and many western communists approved of the crushing. People who love China, Russia, Assad’s Syria, etc are tankies.
Makes sense. Tyvm
Derogatory term accusing someone of being a communist/Marxist.
More specifically, Stalinist/Maoist/any-other-„communist“-tyrant-ist. It refers specifically to people who excuse/deny tyranny and oppression caused by anyone who calls themselves communist.
Reddit will now issue warnings to users who “upvote several pieces of content banned for violating our policies” within “a certain timeframe,” starting first with violent content, the company announced on Wednesday.
“This will have no impact on the vast majority of users as most already downvote or report abusive content,” a Reddit employee says in the announcement post. In comments on the post, a user expressed concern that the new policy could make people “paranoid about voting,” but the employee says that “this would be an unacceptable side effect, which is why we want to monitor this closely and ramp it up thoughtfully.”
If it violates policies, remove it and move on. This is weird.
“We have done this in the past for quarantined communities and found that it did help to reduce exposure to bad content, so we are experimenting with this sitewide,” according to the main post. Reddit “may consider” expanding the warnings in the future to cover repeated upvotes of other kinds of actions as well as taking other types of actions in addition to warnings.
Now that there is Thoughtcrime territory.
the thought police.
“Hey investors look away from the huge pile of porn we’re hosting and look at these cool content filters we’re adding”.
This reminds me lots of when Facebook started applying warnings/bans/etc retroactively to content without any context. I remember getting several wrist slaps in the same month for content I had shared a decade prior that really wasn't all that bad. But Facebook decided it was a problem and made me question what I was allowed to post in the future. It didn't take long after that for me to stop using Facebook completely.
and reddit is copying the same methods, retroactively banning people, additionally any old acct with comments that are also old can be reported by other users still.
It’s actually old hat. Users on r/cth (where hexbear came from) were catching admin bans for upvoting the “wrong” posts years ago.
Pretending that is not tankie behaviour 😂😂
The exact wording seems to be "banned content", which includes a lot more than just violence (is violence banned in the first place, considering subs like r/PublicFreakout?).
