A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I updoot basically everyone I interact with, or anyone I think has shared good insights, funny jokes or some other thing in that order. Or when relevant to a community like the unpopular opinion community where you upvote what you consider unpopular and downvote what you consider popular
I downvote when I think someone has a bad take, or is being hostile or spamming
And I don't interact when im either feeling neutral on it, a good take is proposed in an asshole way, or someone whose comment is disagreeable enough for me not even consider engaging
This one is up there for me. Lack of tact. The worst is seeing a public spat where one party wasn't totally closed off to having their view changed but then some clown takes a shit in the comment box and ruins that potential.
I upvote basically everyone and even those I'm arguing with on Lemmy. I rarely down vote, I use not voting as my functional down vote as people get pretty fucking creepy about tracking you when you vote them down.
Can one see who voted on a comment here? Or is that just when it's likely by logical assumption (like a reply on a 3 months old comment getting downvoted after 2 minutes -> has to be from the person whose comment was replied to)
You can lookup who voted which way on each specific post because Lemmy is transparent.

Thanks, I wasn't aware of that!
