I didn’t say they shouldn’t exist, just to be more regulation
- Comment on Anon is karming 1 week ago:
No, because I like having conversations with people uninterrupted, when it gets removed and I have done nothing wrong, it is rude.
- Comment on Anon is karming 1 week ago:
There are abusive mods on all platforms

I only wish I had land, lol. I see you suffer from RAS syndrome as well.
- Comment on Why do many lame or incorrect comments get so much more attention than some witty or funny ones? 1 week ago:
So something controversial sparking outrage should get upvotes instead of down votes? Statistically? Because when I disagree or dislike something I downvote, dislike etc. Is the opposite more common?
- Comment on Why do many lame or incorrect comments get so much more attention than some witty or funny ones? 1 week ago:
I agree with the first part, but the second while I also agree, my comment wasn’t a “stupid question” that would apply to this benefit. It was simply an observation with a false premise and an opinion expressed as a lame joke I made. I expected it to go south but it went well.
What I was asking was not why this phenomenon can be a good thing but why it would get nearly an exponentially larger amount of likes/upvotes than other posts and not downvotes instead. If they disagreed or were correcting/criticizing me, wouldn’t it follow for the comment to be down voted? I know some people view down ones as agree/disagree or like/dislike, or whether it fits the community, but logically it would seem since they expressed they didn’t like why I said in the comments, they or other readers would have downvoted me.
Unless people just wanted to bring it to everyone else’s attention, idk . The entire comment in question was a faux pas that I left unchecked and then somehow a success. Don’t really care about the “points” but it just sparked my curiosity why all of a sudden, compared to other countless times that I make similar comments, that this one was an outlier.
- Comment on Anon is karming 1 week ago:
I got one like this. It didn’t break the rules but was very popular on Reddit. After about a day I got the mod removal comment and was pissed because it was a great discussion and everyone was civil. They said it didn’t “fit” the subreddit but it certainly did, no rule was applied nor could it.
Hate all mods on all platforms with a passion. No regulation whatsoever on how they should act. Making interactions unfair. Yet there is no consequence to them for this injustice. The unfortunate thing is that some subreddits or communities are too popular and are dominant so even if I created my own version with a similar topic and my own fair rules, to treat people more fairly, it wouldn’t be the same. Certain communities might be the only place on Reddit or Lemmy that I can talk about a certain thing and get the audience/answer/feedback I want.

You have to open in your phone’s external browser. I use chrome but I am sure other would work. When I clicked on it using Boost for Lemmy and it opened in the in-app browser, it didn’t work well.

Proton is Swiss I believe.
- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
I do it for all free services. Like AI where you have daily limits. I thought about VPN but I don’t have the cost. It seems the only trusted free tier VPN is Proton bc they have a paid plan. I read good reviews and it didn’t seem to slow down anything noticeably.
- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
I forget the name but I was looking for free versions of no code app builders to make a productivity app of my own and one did not have a way to sign up with any email only sign up with Google or MS. Also had to create this second MS account, triggering this captcha, originally because I was using MS designer to generate free AI images but the fast tokens run out 15 a day. So to exploit AI, I always use multiple accounts and it is an MS service. I have like 10 MS accounts now due to using up the free OneDrive storage plans.

Some services require an MS or Google sign in

- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
I just feel jipped bc my version of the orbits and numbers were all jumbles so you couldn’t tell which orbit pertained to which number.
- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
Much of the math I learned was memorizing steps. If it came up in real life I probably wouldn’t be able to piece all necessary info into an equation. Even a word problem is assumed to include the minimum. I am not a software engineer nor a programmer (yet) I am learning python supposedly a good precursor since my bg is in web design. The way i see it, all forms of logic while they don’t have a direct applied use in my life, serve as an exercising of my mind and can help understand inconsistencies and other logic/reasoning concepts. They are indirectly related.
- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
A few years ago when I was in college, I would’ve been able to solve that equation probably but that information has since left my brain lol.

I am usually good at puzzles but this was hard to see on my phone. The pictures were much smaller in my version compared to the image. It wasn’t an intelligence issue, it was a vision issue.
- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
The version I did had smaller circles, more abstract and nearly indistinguishable symbols and shapes and the numbers were scattered throughout the orbits. Some numbers were in between and it took a few seconds to figure out what orbit they were ‘labeling’. Also as you scrolled through the options, it seemed as if none fit the appropriate answer so I defaulted to the audio.
- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
I know why they do it, just the fact that they seem to be the only ones with a difficult one like this. Some people might not be able to. I could barely see it.
- Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!? 4 weeks ago:
This was for an online service. I don’t want it to be restricted to one device. I was creating multiple accounts so I could have multiple free trials of things not affiliated with MS but had an option to use an MS account to log in.

- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 5 weeks ago:
I never noticed a quality difference on my phone due to the small screen, even 1080p to 720p wasn’t bad on my 4k TV. Also, when did they change the free trial from three months to one?
