That is kind of you to remark, thank you.

Alright, fair then. As a layman I am not privvy to that so I’m lacking that context in my understanding. I appreciate you sharing and will think on this more, thank you.

One could argue this very thread and similar anecdotes shared are the issues you’re inquiring about.

And I’m not out here asking for Lemmy to be rewritten, I’m discussing the topic. It is my least favorite thing about Lemmy, yes, but that doesn’t mean I’m disatisfied. I think mods seeing voting is less than ideal, but to be clear, I also think it’s fine.

Nothing is perfect, and if that’s the compromise for the benefits of Lemmy, it’s an acceptable one.

Just before this turns into something where people think I’m outraged or calling for change.

We can discuss things in the abstract.

I feel like this is a solution in search of a problem. Has faulty or malicious vote manipulation via instance federation actually been an issue before?

Admins, not mods. Enormous distinction here. And I don’t understand why that information can’t be anonymized or attached to a user identifying number rather than username, but I will admit I’m not a develop not a sysadmin so I am a layman speaking outside my field here.

That mods/admins can even see who is downvoting is, by far, my least favorite thing about Lemmy.

Bro do you think I typed this through clenched teeth or something? My comment was in exactly the same light tone as yours.

That hasn’t been my experience. My experience is that my first impressions are woefully incomplete, but rarely wrong.

You aren’t reading the wrong book, you’re just only getting the prelude chapter.

I mean it tells me that you’re somebody who weighs levity over seriousness. Even if it doesn’t specifically tell me who you are, to imply that any choice is devoid of meaning is equally unrealistic.

If you are so pedantic so as to not consider the support for the banister as part of the banister, then frankly I have no interest in the necessary effort required to discuss this or any matter further with you.

If our view was from the top looking down at the bottom then the banister would be rotated 90 degrees towards us.

I guess I should address the “wear” on the carpet as well: it doesn’t look worn to me, it looks disturbed. Like before this person tried shoving their mattress up the stairs and got it stuck, they carried a heavy dresser or or something up the stairs and dragged it up each stair, sliding it along the carpet. I suspect this is a person moving into a cheap efficiency apartment, since the one my father moved into last when he was still alive looked extremely similar.

My stairs don’t have a visible ledge. I don’t know why people are acting like that’s standard. I think only one of the homes I’ve lived in has had a stairwell with ledges.

My guy, the banister.

Carpet is softer and more enjoyable to walk on than hard floors. I will never understand this weird anti-carpet trend we’ve gotten into in the past decade, except that it’s the same thing as grass lawn emulating the wide expanse of the wealthy.

How are y’all arguing this? The banister makes it unquestionably obvious that it’s at the top. There’s no debate to be had here unless the banister was intentionally installed wrong just for the purpose of this meme, which would be crazy.

The mattress is at the top, y’all.

I think we’re gonna have to call this one a skill issue actually, as I don’t think I can discretely put a canoe into my pocket so I’m not sure how you expect me to actually get from canoe acquisition to open seas without arrest.

In general I feel like I’m more likely to want to revisit and spend more time in the world of a good book than the world of most films, even films I enjoy, so it makes sense to me that there’s enough to easily fill two books worth.

I saw the first Jurassic Park. I enjoyed it. But I feel sated with that single entry. If you love these movies, more power to you, but I don’t really understand it myself.
