There are issues that have been on my mind for a few days, and I wanted to talk about them with you.

Downvotes

As you may notice, downvotes have been completely off for the last few days. I did this because I couldn’t resist the pressure of some friends :/ I still don’t know what to do about this. The majority of members probably want it to be completely open. As mods, posters and admins; some think it should be closed, some think it should be restricted (I guess).

I guess there is no solution that makes everyone happy. I realized I don’t have admin skills in stressful situations, I’m a fucking stupid lol :D I miss @gabe so much.

lemmyposter212 suggested “fuzzy votes” or something that can work for us too. I think I’ll just ghost this issue for a while.

Donations

As you know, all our donation accounts have been closed. Since it was my first time opening a site in the NSFW area, I had no experience. I reviewed some adult donation sites but most of them were shady. Honestly I couldn’t trust them.

There are only coins now. But I guess most people don’t want to deal with coins. It is because I didn’t get any donations about 4 months now :D Those sent from Github Sponsor or Patreon were also returned to donators as well. I received $200-ish donations so far.

We are currently the 2nd largest instance in Lemmy. After lemmy.world, we’re bigger than lemmy.ml and lemm.ee! I don’t think it will work this way anymore. On an annual basis, I need to spend a month’s salary for Lemmy NSFW.

Does anyone have an idea to solve this problem?

    I’d rather you left a mean comment because then I can tell pretty much where you’re coming from. If you’re a cunt then I can ignore you. If you have a particular gripe with the picture (too old, too small, kink you don’t like etc.) I can decide what to do about that on a case by case basis, you never know you might end up getting content that you like better. And that’s before we get into the vote manipulation argument where users can promote their own content against competing content.

    Can you give me an example of a condescending post? Not a comment, a condescending post.

    The fact that you’re unironically using the “snowflakes” argument makes me suspect that you just use downvotes because you’re a miserable type of a person and you just want to spread that misery around.

      I love how instead of debating the argument, you attack my character.

      Try again. This time with a case against my argument and not my character. You can do it. I believe in you.👍

        Ahhh see you have now reverted to the standard troll handbook. And that’s why the downvotes were turned off. Off you pop, back to Redgifs and don’t let the door hit your arse on the way out.

          You asked for an example of a condescending post but I admittedly couldn’t find one so I thought a condescending comment might give the same feeling.
