A Request to the Fediverse Community

[fizz@lemmy.nz]

What is peoples opinions on reposting. Sometimes i see a cool video from a creator i like and i want to repost it to loops but i feel like im stealing and reuploading their work. I think reposting to lemmy is fine since its a link aggregation site first.

[rosahaj@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

is Loops out now? I was wondering when that'd come around.

[email protected] could definitely benefit from some nice reposts!

Is there an open ticket for the dev to know?

[truxnell@infosec.pub]

It's a fair call, I think I'll push send more often from now on!

Honestly half the reason I don't post these days is more not wanting to feed LLMs/dox myself further, but that's a whole other can of worms to worry about

Happy to help!

I'm back after a year away. My two favourite niche interests (wrestling & fantasy books) still don't have hugely active communities but I'll start pitching in again with some lukewarm takes.

[rosahaj@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

welcome back, and good luck!

You're not shy, you're just a normally adjusted human.

It's normal to want to avoid being abused and insulted for, say, having an opinion which is marginally different to the in-group consensus. But unfortunately that's what happens when we post on text-based social media. Apparently the medium does something to people's minds, turning them into nasty vindictive unpleasant versions of themselves.

I'm a pretty self-confident person in real life and even I think twice about posting anything here that contradicts the prevailing groupthink. The inevitable insults and abuse and mockery are sometimes just not worth it.

[email protected] seems quite active !

[tisi@reddthat.com]

It's been out for a while. And to quote Blaze

[email protected] could definitely benefit from some nice reposts!

There's only one person posting there, I think it's the mod. I'm sure they'd appreciate some support.

Nice list

[southendsunset@lemm.ee]

I get this. I used to use Threads and someone got very angry at me cause I said Labour, supposedly the left wing party in the UK, are “upsetting the right people”, I should have clarified that I don’t think that they are doing a good job, but never mind.

[southendsunset@lemm.ee]

I’ve had abuse for posting a short story that validated the group think. Several times.

[surewhynotlem@lemmy.world]

That's a horrible take and you should feel bad.

But I'm a stranger on the Internet and probably a moron so it's ok to not take me seriously or respond to me.

[cheems@lemmy.world]

I do that quite a lot too
