Oh great, thanks for the info!

I commented on the original thread about the decision that I thought downvotes for community members only would be a good solution, and I'm very glad to see it under consideration. I have voted in the poll accordingly.
Meanwhile, I do appreciate the viewpoint expressed so eloquently by @[email protected], and want to express appreciation for their contribution to the community and empathy for their experience. As a user who subscribes to communities that interest me, pretty much keeps to my 'Subscribed' feed, votes on posts, and sometimes comments on posts or participates in discussion, but who hasn't really posted any OC, my interest is of course in expressing my satisfaction or dissatisfaction with a post, and marking it such that it no longer appears in my feed when I have 'Show Read Posts' unselected in my preferences.
I bring up the latter point because I'd ask, IF you ultimately make the decision NOT to make downvotes available to community members, would it be possible to institute some ability to hide a specific post (rather than block a user), or mark a post as read. This could also be a workable alternative.
Sincere thanks for being proactive, transparent, and willing to consider community feedback.
Posted this with my lemmy.world account, but I'll try it here via the web interface just to make sure this is working -
Can't log in or view the site using Liftoff.
I just want to go on record saying I do not like this change, though I do understand the good intention behind it.
It seems there was a simple and elegant solution discussed earlier in this thread - only allow downvotes of you are subscribed to the community where the post is. I know this would need to be implemented by the lemmy devs; is there someplace we can request or vote on such features? A whole tagging system may be nice, but it's overkill for this problem.
Meanwhile, genuine question, how do I hide posts that I have already seen that I would have downvoted? I have already joined a bunch of communities, and I only look at my Subscribed feed. I have lemmy set to not show me posts I've already voted on. Thus, my feed is always kept fresh, and when I log in I just see what's new in those communities to which I've subscribed.
So, now I see a post that I feel doesn't live up to the standards of a particular community. It doesn't break any rules per se, and it's not report-worthy, it's just not a good post. Normally I'd downvote and move on, and I'd never see it again. So now what do I do to ensure I don't see it every time I log in? Lemmy doesn't have a 'hide' or 'mark seen' feature (another good feature we should have), and I don't want to upvote the post because it's a bad post. I also don't want to block the poster, because their next post might be great! What do I do here?
I hate to make this post any longer, but I'll just provide an example. Within the last couple days, I saw the same post uploaded to both gonewild and to adorableporn. I upvoted the gonewild post and downvoted the adorableporn post, because at the end of the day it was a pretty average nude picture, perfectly reasonable for gonewild. But not, IMO, anything that could be called adorable. That, to me, seems like specifically the kind of situation that calls for a 'downvote and move on' response. So now how do I hide that post without blocking that user, who is otherwise posting good content?
Well I'm definitely straining in my cage watching Luke oil up and caress this beautiful tits of yours and imagining being in his place, so mission accomplished! Thanks, I think.
Pretty sure that's Spanish porn star Amarna Miller (in what looks like an early scene)
Wow! Luke is so lucky, and you are very generous. But also that whole scene sounds incredibly hot! It's an amazing feeling having no control whatsoever - I can only imagine it's just as amazing to have all the control too. Thanks for posting and giving us these windows into your adventures.
Absolutely amazing tease. It's incredible how you've trained him over all this time. I'm straining in my cage watching you. Thank you for giving us these glimpses into your adventures together. Not just the videos, but the stories and commentary too. I really enjoy reading your "behind the scenes" perspective.
Gods, this is SO HOT. I can only imagine how frustrating that would be. Love that you included the aftercare. It's like you're half devil, half angel. Luke's a very lucky boy.
Absolutely loving this ongoing journey you are on. I wish I could be in Luke's place, and so glad to hear that you're feeling like the goddess you are!
Good luck with your self- challenge. I'm the opposite, a true introvert. It's not that I don't have friends who's company I enjoy (in measured doses), but I find the presence of others exhausting, and need time in solitude to recharge from it.
Thanks, I've discovered Sync works as well.
