VGarK,

You can make a digital version 😂 future wizards will just go with the iPad casting spells 🤣

VGarK,

Did TenCent really buy shares?

VGarK,

Agreed 105%

VGarK,

Not a problem at all. I understand that we are ego-driven, but then again, the fediverse is a new working paradigm. We are here because we want to. Genuinely curious what you guys thought!

VGarK,

Accountability is important, even if we are just using usernames and avatars

VGarK,

I agree mate. I joined Lemmy today, and I really appreciate the fact that there is no karma here. Until today, I’ve never believed that it was possible to have a non-gamified social network. We are here because we want to and we enjoy

VGarK,

Another user mentioned something like that! I like the idea :D

VGarK,

That it true… if they don’t “earn” anything for low effort comments, then they will diminish

VGarK,

Number go down, makes brain sad ;(

VGarK,

I’ve googled Bayesan Interference, however I don’t understand what you meant by it. Could you elaborate please :)

VGarK,

This is indeed a new debate that I’d like to have 😂

VGarK,

It is doable for the mods when the community has 100 members, after that, it gets hard for the poor mods ;(

VGarK,

I am not sure I followed, sorry

VGarK,

This would take some work, however, it is possible. Almost all the languages share some common concepts, such as love, hate, disgust, “what the eff”, cute… the symbology of them may be different, in japan, this🫰🏻means ❤️, for instance. It would be a matter of i18n the tags for a better localisation

VGarK,

What would you think about actual levels that the users could have and increase as they participate in conversations. That would not take into account the quality of the posts tho

VGarK,

I found very interesting the concept of chain of trust :) What is the friend/foe/fan/freak?

VGarK,

Never reached that far on any Dark Souls to even need to send messages/emotes… 😂

VGarK,

Thanks for the reading! That is very interesting concept that I’d love to see implemented here 👌🏻

VGarK,

I like the idea of giving more information, however I’d say for both upvotes and downvotes. Me, as a user, I want to do things as quick as possible, so I’d say the action of upvoting/downvoting while giving more information should be embed into a quick wheel.

I like your comment, long press upvote and then select why in the categories. The same for downvoting

VGarK,

What is that?

VGarK,

That is indeed my fault. I came looking for something to end the craving and the void left by reddit. I should rethink my approach and understand that this could go beyond my ego

VGarK,

Thanks for those words :)

VGarK,

What is Lsashdot?

VGarK,

I never though about it, but if people compete to be the best, some others could also compete to be the worst…

VGarK,

This could work 😂 I’m giving you the wholesome award! 🦭

VGarK,

How would you find those bad actors?

VGarK,

Not related to the subject at hand, however, I’d love to hear a lil bit more about your view as an anarchist. Do you think that is one of the reasons you are part of the fediverse?

VGarK,

I think the idea of sacrificing your own “good boi points” to downvote a post bring a new layer of complexity. For sure, the hive-mind effect would be attenuated if users had to sacrifice their own “points”, and, probably, the downvoting as a whole would be less used. What do you guys think about how the use of the downvote would change?

VGarK,

What other methods would there be to find bad actors? Do you think karma does a good work on finding bad actors?

VGarK,

I like that way of thinking, however, people could exploit that. Imagine you are in a chat about colour blue, then you say colour red is better. You get downvoted for having an opinion different from others. That would make people follow the hive-mind so their colour doesn’t turn red

VGarK,

Thanks for the link. To anyone that does’t know about Bayesian inference, do check it out!

Now I have an existencial crisis thanks to the video 😂 the funny part is that thats the same thing used to detect spam email…

VGarK,

Would you implement any other system?

VGarK,

We can defo have good things, but first we need to change our ways of behaving. For instance, I was completely addicted to karma, but reading the comments here I’ve come to understand that this is not a reddit 2.0, but something completely different with so much freedom and potential. This is an opportunity, for me and others, to enjoy a new concept of social network :)

VGarK,

How would you separate the wisdom of the crowd from its stupidity?

VGarK,

That makes sense, thanks for the reply :)

VGarK,

That sounds awesome! You seem to be quite knowledgeable about mathematics. May I ask what is your background?

VGarK,

Made an account on Lemmy 3h ago, best thing I've done to counter the need to constantly check Reddit :)

VGarK,

The first steps were the hardest, I agree. Now I find it so odd that there are no ads at all😂
