I’ve found that the smaller size of Lemmy both gets me to comment more, and gets me to abandon more iffy comments when a single upvote seems more significant here than on certain similar huge websites.
The contrarians are still here in large numbers even given the smaller community sizes. No one can see your account score anyway, I think the factor most affecting my posting is my small voice is much louder here
No they aren’t. There aren’t any contrarians on the Fediverse. I’m going to need you to cite your sources.
Your total score is 766, my friend. ;)
It still doesn’t matter, but you can see it if you want.
Your numbers have no power over me friend
Good to know it’s viewable somewhere lol
Am contrarian can confirm
I’ve abandoned the value of upvotes anyway and just say shit that I find funny. Not nasty stuff, just like purposely missing the point or trolling like I’m stupid or something. It causes no harm and it’s not like I’m missing out on money.
I like that upvotes and downvotes mean nothing here other than for that single comment.
Me too! Be warned though, at least half the apps seem to want to throw an aggregate at you.
Yup, but since there’s no consistency, nobody cares about it.
And woe to the lowly commentator who suggests a middle opinion, this sparking the ire of both A and B.
Hey FUCK You!
Don’t threat me with a good time
I’ll give you a better time!
I draw the line at being the middle of no more than five people. Otherwise it gets weird.
Oh, a centrist, are ya? Get 'em, lads!
Word son
the number of textareas that i have closed for the betterment of humanity outweighs my actual postings by orders of magnitude

Discretion is the better part of valor.
