And let everyone sort posts by emoji count.
Upvoted for being unpopular because damn that’s some unpopular shit
I had to reverse my vote when I realized the community. I can never remember how the rules work. Am I supposed to upvote? Hah
Upvoted as unpopular.
I hate 99% of the emoji usage but the idea has some merits. I feel like the sort of “anonymous reaction” that we give in Lemmy should be a bit more fine-grained than just up/downvotes.
Anybody else remember Slashdot? I always liked its moderation (and metamoderation!) system, where you could rate things +1 “interesting,” “insightful,” “informative,” “funny,” “underrated,” or -1 “overrated,” “troll,” “offtopic,” or “flamebait” (I think that was all of them…).
I, for one, remember our former Slashdot overlords :^)
To-the-point: I think that Slashdot got the right idea. We vote on things for multiple reasons, not just to make them more/less visible; it’s a form of communication.
Downvotes are why I’m here!
Social media without downvotes are just propaganda mills, reinforcing bad behavior.
Nobody wants a visual cacophony of zoomer hieroglyphics on every post, so yes congratulations on the unpopular opinion .
visual cacophony of zoomer hieroglyphics
This made me literally laugh out loud, wow
upvoted but realized which community this was posted so i had to un-vote (i think thats how it works here)
emoji reactions and especially actual custom emojis that are not broken inline markdown images are one of the defining parts of the actually fun parts of the fedi and not having any (even as an option you can disable) just makes this site look even more of a boring politics shitflinging and linux evangelism platform instead of somewhere you can expect people to relax and have fun at
they are way less of a distraction than replies with reaction images and 10 gigabyte animated gifs which take up half your screen and seem to be favored by the people here considering the negative reactions (ha!) this opinion got
i’d also be in favor of MFM, too. doing MFM art is much more of a creative expression than shilling firefox or grumbling about how the US is falling apart
just, please implement them correctly and in an interoperable fashion, and not like the broken mess of a custom emoji system lemmy has today
Then we can make a lemmy client that spews the emoji reacts as bubbles over the screen everytime you load a post
angry Facebook emoji
So like Facebook?

Nobody will probably remember canv.as but you would give people emoji stickers like that. Cookies were the participation award. I loved that site.
tf is misskey?
googles
server list
4th column instance has free speech and cunny in the same sentence
closes tab
nah lets not take influence from them
Wtf are you talking about?
Edit: I could not verify what this guy claimed at all. It’s mostly Japanese user instances and that’s about it.
I filtered by english instances, that’s where the weird stuff emerged
Upvoted for being unpopular. I already block people who use emojis here anyway
