Spiffy Diffy

THICC 😩

the fang and the drool 😍

That’s the mascot of the software. I’m talking about the instance “misskey.io”. Someone talked about him being the mascot (or at least a mascot) in a thread I read earlier today, and he’s on the docs for the instance. I also saw some fan art of him, and a lot of it associates him with the website. They even have stickers for him on that instance. I don’t use misskey or misskey.io though so I could be wrong.

She’s cute too though.

Oh by the way, she’s saying “I’m doing it behind the school”

It feels a bit too much like YouTube and the removal of the dislike button to me.

That was a crucially different situation. On Youtube, users didn’t control communities or make the rules, so disliking, even though it had many issues, was the only way to discourage bad content. Things are different here. Individual users have much more control so downvotes aren’t needed like they were on Youtube. You don’t lose much except the downsides.

Downvotes seem to only spread negativity and discourage contribution. as others have said, you can just report posts if they’re breaking the rules, so I don’t really get the point of downvotes anyway. Better posts will rise above it even when downvotes are disabled.
