so i used reddit for help with mostly linux and stuff, and it worked fine but i was starting to get pretty fed up by all of these chuds ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿฅ€ like you post something asking like an alternative to google pay for example, and they just say "pay with cash" or "use your card" even if you say that you want to use something like google pay and not cash/card. And they also seem to downvote for no reason at all. maybe im just an idiot or have really bad arguments and opinions, but on lemmy i get upvoted even if no one has commented anything!! its like people upvote stuff cause they're interested in it and/or want the op to find an answer!!!!! also MOST redditors can't be open minded or not be jerks. lets go back to that google pay thingy, if you answer to the "use cash/card" comment with something like "i know that technically is more privacy friendly and such but i just like the convenience of using google pay, idrk why but its just how it is" and they mass downvote that shit like its the black plague and reply with some beef jerky type shii (dont remember any good examples)

THANK YOU LEMMLINGS ๐Ÿฅนโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน

But if I don't get downvotes, how will I know that I'm making people mad?

i noticed there are a lot of liberals here that do massdownvote thingys that break their liberal propa-bubble, like ukraine being a puppet state genocider. buttttttttttt overall its much better here, at least communist views cant be broadly censored like on reddit

you know, that for most (if not all) places oft the world, what a USian would describe as liberal just would be considered normal, democratic civilized peoples behavior. What you think is liberal would by no means be considered "liberal" in i.e. europe
