Have they announced how they come to these numbers?
Are they actual combat deaths or do they take into account surrenders and injuries substantial enough to be taken off the field?
Initially I thought you were saying they subscribed to a single magazine from the same instance three times and was thinking “Is that even possible?”.
Then I had a closer look and realised they were 3x different magazines on different instances but all with the same name.
Makes sense that it would appear 3x times.
and this is the reason I like having reputation points advertised. So you can spot an obvious troll and/or someone who isn’t capable of having a meaningful discussion. It really helps to decide how much effort you put in when conversing with a poster.
I’ve noticed on Lemmy they don’t have reputation points visible on profiles because they see them as a vanity/populatiry metric. Reputation can be used for far more than just “fake internet points” they can be a great indicator of trolls.
Fantastic idea to see what else is out there.
One of the issues I’ve seen recently with kbin.social website is my subscribed feeds getting drowned out by CATS!!!
Don’t get me wrong I love cats but I’m subbbed to about 30 magazine but occasionally kbin decides to fill the entire subscribed feed with posts from m/cats . Hopefully Atremis can be a little bit more broad in terms of which posts from subscribed magazines it presents upfront.
I was watching a review of the GOP debates by some US political junkies just last week and one of the hosts said that Vivek knows he doesn’t have a chance but is using this presidential run to get exposure for his planned foray into right wing talk show host. Something like Tucker or Alex Jones.
Great bang for your buck with free news media advertising by pretending to run for president and saying crazy stuff.
After hearing he wanted to start his own right wing talk show his character and mannerisms made so much more sense.
Apologies for the facebook link (They start talking about him around the 14 min mark and the comment on his talk show plans is at 20 mins)
