Uh, sir! sir! Your inclusive instance policies are unfair! MODS!
I have just upvoted your post
The amount of number on your post has increased by one, and you now have an unfair advantage in the marketplace of ideas.
There are several reasons I may deem a post to be worthy of positive number. These include, but are not limited to:
• Rudeness towards libs, • Spreading correct information, • Sarcasm not flagged with a /s.
No - not yet. But you should keep making posts like this in the future. I will be forced to issue additional upvotes which will give you further advantages.
Not a dream, a spectre. It haunts the libs.
Accept the upvote and move on. But learn from this victory: your behavior will be tolerated on hexbear.net. I will continue to issue upvotes until communism wins. Remember: posting is a right, not a privilege.
thanks, bardfinn
We have altered the voting scheme. Pray we do not alter it further.
this doesn't even make sense. they can downvote us and we can't downvote them. we ratio them anyway.
I've never seen downvotes used for anything other than indicating to others who to dogpile on, without it a lot of people simply won't know which side of an argument they should be on
spoiler: you can just read the post and decide whether or not to dogpile 
ATTN: if you make an acct at lemmy.world, use a VPN or ur privacy is at risk
Easier, practical solution: assume all internet activity (especially social media) is public and act accordingly. Even if you have an anonymous username.
Definitely true, but the lemmy.world mods are trying to dox any commenters they deem to be from hexbear
whether or not it's public, having some deranged libs who think you're a chinese spy but also ddos-ing them, have your IP addresses and any other info you gave their instance, is probably bad
Switching my VPN to China when I dunk on the libs
This isn't about Hexbear. As far as I know Hexbear federates downvotes but does not have downvotes, which puts us at a vote disadvantage. It's Beehaw and some others that reject downvotes from other servers. They send a 504 response to the incoming downvote request from the other server.
We should do that!
Do we need to? I kinda like that we dominate without them.
only if we start getting lurkers that downvote trans shit again. I may still be misunderstanding how they work on hexbear though
Fortunately this is only really a problem in /new/ and by the time any trans post reaches /active/ it's going to be too powerful to be affected by it. Also nobody can see the handful of them that might happen so it shouldn't affect people here.
Could be wrong though and in that case some method of turning it off for specific comms might be useful.
It's cheating to remove the mechanism for astroturfing & troll campaigning. They're making me post, POST!
Wouldn't removing downvotes put us at a disadvantage when commenting and posting on another instance though? Everyone else can downvote us, but we can't downvote anyone. So any advantage we have by removing downvotes is undone by that.
They think we'd downvote posts from our own instance 
Proposal: instead of bringing the downvote back, we should get a second upvote option so we can double-upvote comrades
all hexbear votes need to be multiplied by a hundred in order to offset those foreign downvoting hordes
3/5 rule, HexBear style
Matt Yglesias’ 1 billion Americans proposal but for posting
We support our trans comrades here 
do instances who log all their users IPs and use discord bots to scrape posts and comments violate their users privacy and safety?
talking abt lemmy.world for those unaware
does this happen if i utilise a link to lemmy.ml as the instance, which then views a comm that's on lemmy.world?
i'm just trying to keep my liberalism in check
edit: oh wait I misread, I'm a dummy - I thought you were saying that linking to it was dangerous
Our posts are being subsidized on the global market, giving us an unfair advantage 
I can't determine the quality of a post by how many people liked it. I need to see how many people disliked it! It's the only way!!!!
Capitalists: "Life is a soulless competition, and that's a good thing" 
also libs: "noooo, China is cheating by having a worldview that uses cooperation! That's fucking fascist collectivism" 
Here's what we do, we allow downvotes but then remove upvotes.
What if we banned posting?
Hold on, I'm into it. No more treats in the form of upbears and an incentive to be as annoying as possible?
I'd visit that instance. Call it Hexbrawl
Why are we looking at random Internet points again?
Once they laughed at my Meow Meow Beans, but who is laughing now?
Love how Lemmy has its own equivalent sphere to The International Community
⬆ 
Internet currency manipulators!
hexbear should bring back downvotes, but only for posts on other instances
Banned? DM Wmill to appeal.
No anti-nautilism posts. See: Eco-fascism Primer
Vaush posts go in the_dunk_tank
Dunk posts in general go in the_dunk_tank, not here
Don't post low-hanging fruit here after it gets removed from the_dunk_tank
