What happened?

Goodbye Post

Looks like their Piefed instance incorporated a vote limit impacting a users ability to interact with their audience, and the holy one just threw up their hands at the thought of having to migrate due to instance dumbfuckery again.

What a weird policy decision. I don't think the Fediverse needs artificial scarcity or austerity.

I wouldn't agree with it but I see why they do it. If you listen to the instance operators and comm mods talk a big priority is they're trying not to just build another reddit. So occasionally instance devs get these ideas to try and deincentivise some of the toxic patterns reddit encouraged.

I don't understand. A vote limit? As in a user can't vote more than X amount of times per day or something? If so, how does that impact the ability to interact with their audience?

The holy one had many followers, and often had more than 250 people to bestow their blessed upvote upon. Pedantry should never get in the way of good works.

Oh it's the reverse??? A user cannot get more than X amount of votes? Dafak? Now that's crazy.

OP isn't correct in this case, I think it's to stay aligned with the tongue in cheek tone of the post.

The voting limit is for votes given, not received.

Have an upvote, just to test the limits of your instance.
