Yea ther is a big difference between indexing and counting

There are enought people who never posted something in their live and are still addicted to just browsing.

But it’s not that advanced of a strategy. Everybody I know plays like this. Everything else is straight up trowing the game. And you quickly notice that after loosinga few games to people who actually play it good. And if everybody plays like that it becomes pure luck

I have a friend that grew up very poor and with a difficult family, where drug abuse was a constant issue. It went to a point where they were just living under one roof, but stopped communicating. He luckily moved out, managed to go to university and got out of that downwords spiral. His brother didn’t. He’s now a drug dealer with no vision for a different career.

I think it’s very important for me to have that perspective. It’s in a way humbling to see how much of a difference it makes to have a working family. In general I think this changes my view on society as a whole. You allways hear that some people have problems, but I allways thought that those people “just” have a hard childhood and are just normal people when they grow up and move out. But that shit leaves marks. I allways have to think about his brother who didn’t get out of that circle. He will continue to have a very hard life.

Depends on where their main residence is and how long they have lived there

It’s not that helpfull as everybody thinks and slowly people are realizing that.

Yea thats not how it works.

The average person has to manually make all the accounts, switch between them, find the post and vote on it. Thats a lot of effort for one additional vote. If you realy want to have an effect you have to build a botnet and thats a lot of work to annoy some people.

I mean sure. It’s probably done in some extend. But on most posts it’s just not worth the trouble setting up a whole bot network, just because you don’t like to post of 3volver. And you could build a similar bot network for pretty much every other social media platform, so it’s not realy worth to invest that much time in altering the upvotes of a lemmy post. Lemmy beeing a network most people never even heard about.
