Lemmy’s design is focused on quality content by ditching the Karma farmers and addicts. No more chasing upvotes—people here actually focus on real value instead of feeding the ego.
EDIT: I know there are upvotes and downvotes, but the problem with Reddit is you can’t post in most communities if your karma or reputation is bad. This is a big problem because herd mentality prevails there and if ypu have unpopular opinions you’re basically censored.
Lemmy isn’t designed to milk ypur dopamine with notifications every 10 upvotes, so you focus more on posting valuable cont instead of farming for approval and upvotes.

I wonder what you thought was evil. Probably something banal, but something Lemmy hates.
I vaguely recall it being something about refugees or Palestine
That makes sense. I still hold the opinion that illegal immigrants should be deported, and Hamas is awful.
Most people would agree with me, but most on Lemmy would not
What is this ‘evil’ flair stuff please do tell
Boost for Lemmy lets you tag users. I gave this user the evil tag when they said something evil.
Wooo, that’s super cool. Do I have any tags? Tell me tell me. Make a pink one
Tho these tags are shared yes? Imagine shared community built tags like some yelp reviews of people. Actually that’s a terrible idea so it will probably happen.

I don’t talk to anyone lower than 7 or who was marked by users as <opposite political party>
Better yet. Automatically ban anyone with lower than 5
Ugh too much coffee, too many stimulants
Still it sucks so that’s probably the future. you can’t even opt out because even if you don’t have the AR glasses everyone else has.
The only hope for the future is to be a hacker. Achieve a cozy AI-proof job as a security expert and use the skills to enhance your life. If you are able to find new exploits that will always be valuable skill netting cash one white hat way or black hat another and rather hard to replicate for LLMs which excel at repetitive patterns. So whether you are making wannacry 2.0 or blackmailing companies into hiring you I think this is relatively future proof area.
