I don’t want to be blocked or ignored, just have one post with a few hundred downvotes to see what the level is like on Lemmy. Also, I don’t mean it in the sense of the famous reddit test post that said it should not be upvoted. I mean, I want to know how to construct a post, and where to put it, that will get it downvoted hard. I don’t think asklemmy will work. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Post about how Windows isn’t that bad in any Linux community.
Post about how any popular AAA title isn’t that bad in any gaming community.
Post about how capitalism isn’t that bad in any lemmy.ml community.
The problem with .ml shitposting is that it will almost immediately get removed. If it does start to propagate around to other instances, people will immediately recognize it as a troll post and it will get upvoted.
Trolling ml takes finesse and it’s the IRL epitome of “opposite day” over there.
Yeah, I think the first one is the most likely path.
I don’t post actual threads, but my most downvoted comment was this one that I’m quite proud of:
Debian is a joke, it is so far out of date it is unusable for anything except cave-painting or maybe a stone circle.
Ubuntu is way better.
So yeah, I’d recommend OP baits linuxmemes. I think it has more users, more touchy, less sense of humour. But you’re also less likely to get your post banned in a memes forum.
Thank you. I’ll put that on my agenda. Any suggestions for where to put a post about how the sales of AAA games for Windows is evidence of the superiority of capitalism?
Why can’t I upvote and downvote this comment
Two of them will get your post removed and permabanned, one is worth a try but just have to pick the right game
GolemScratch that. Just say Last of Us 2 is either the best game ever or the worst game ever.
Or saying Breath of the Wild/mario odyssey is horrible and listing nitpicks
Oh, I’ve done the first one, it was great fun.
You gotta figure out a way to ride the line just short of getting banned.
Good point. I guess that’s what I’m trying to figure out.
Claiming a basic false thing as something true and saying that everyone keeps trying to gaslight you might work. Same as the stackexchange effect, people will engage to correct you more than anything else. Making it relate to insulting a large group would probably help too ig.
The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking different heroes.
Ask and ye shall receive.
You could also spout bigoted garbage or claim to kick dogs and blow cats but you would also quickly be banned and the post/comment removed, putting a limit on how many down votes you receive.
Clarifying for anyone looking at my votes: I downvoted to help, not because I disagree.
We got you, OP!
Did you try asking “Will you please downvote this?” in “nostupidquestions”.
I don’t think it’ll beat ragebait though.
Post conservative stuff in a conservative community. You won’t get banned, and there’s plenty of people who’s activism consists of downvoting things they disagree with
I don’t know if this will be attempt, but I helped. Godspeed, OP
praise ai generated slop and memecoins and nfts and that should get you some more downvotes
Off topic vegan rant on a community that doesn’t really remove posts? Bonus points for “carnist”.
Say you think any right wing president was amazing.
you could post satire
Borrow my account and say things that most people should be in agreement about? Sometimes I really just don’t understand
Does comments help bring the post higher in ranking while its still down voted?
