Not recommended, but I'd like to see some madman do it.

The easiest to explain method:

  • Copy the link https://sh.itjust.works/c/plugins
  • Paste it to search box at lemmy.ml
  • The search results open the foreign sub while staying in your own instance
  • Subscribe

The other way:

Click this link to skip some of the steps above:
https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]
Look how I made this link, you can do the same for other subs too.

Kokemuksesta tiedän, että tuollainen sotilassaattue kohti maan pääkaupunkia ei onnistu kuitenkaan.

:D

Taas loistava kirjoitus Lehdeltä.

There was an update to lemmy just now, someone said it broke jerboa. I guess beehaw has installed it already. But I think the website is preferable to jerboa in its current state anyway.

Menin selaamaan tota ja yllätyin; Returnal olikin suomalainen. Olen nähnyt sen useasti steamissa ja muualla, mutten tutkinut sen enempää.

Lemmyssä voi muuten perua poistamisen.

My local newspaper attempted "well argumented" and "agree/disagree" scores years ago. Later they removed the "agree" score, and I recall some accusations of orwellian moderation, but I think this is a cool idea that deserves more experimentation.

I like the thought behind this idea but I don't think it's a good solution. It requires having a reputation score, which I think outweighs the positives here. I could also see people trying to play this system in a couple different ways, which is just plain bad for discussion culture: encourage others to downvote something without spending the reputation yourself, or collect downvotes with bait content in order to eat through other peoples reputation.

Could you link that? I don't see an obvious benefit, but it sounds interesting.

Downvotes aren't intended for the subject of the news, but for OP for making the post. If you hate the subject, I guess the correct action is to express it in the comments, or give an upvote if someone else already did.

A karma score encourages making poor quality meme posts and comments in large quantities to gain more fake internet points. It's easily abused; Reddit is full of karma farming bots.

No downvotes was also mentioned here, but I heavily disagree. Downvotes, in my opinion are mostly a positive thing. Youtube hiding downvotes was a move towards a "good vibes only, no criticism allowed" type of environment.

Lemmy pretty much meets my ideal in this regard, it has downvotes and doesn't have a broken social credit system.
