low effort reddit-like posts

Let’s say Lemmy becomes the biggest platform for forum like exchange. Will a lack in karma system change low effort issues since we still have a upvote based community systems? Where bots could influence certain opinions that show up on your feed

My current impressions:

Art communities sadly seem so lackluster - “like why share” is the vibe Im getting. I just want a strong unique selling point (USP) compared to reddit, because lemmy could replace (not saying it should copy) reddit, like the good parts, and show how reddit is in essence flawed like x and meta for example.

Or communities showing political/global media of what people recorded (i.e. some protest in istanbul right now, or serbia using sonic weaponry at a demonstration), even more regional like r/de always gives you a very complete feeling slice of german articles out there and its always rated so regularly. You can see like the top 5 publications of the day and then discuss it/see how people feel about certain things, that you wouldnt think about just reading the article.

I just fear the personal motivation for users might be too low for such feed activity, and often I notive like 10 people upvoting and not a single comment, so more reactionary - maybe its just total users tho what im missing…

what do you have in mind whne mentioning this?

badges, like the premium feature u mean?

But the cost of gamification with all the karma farming it leads to may well be too steep.

I have no idea of where to find the Lemmy devs’ thoughts because general opinion across the fediverse has been training me to avoid Lemmy.ml lol.

why is that?

Wie nichtmal versucht wird das glaubhaft zu gestalten Xd

Ich dachte, dass automatisch alles gelöscht wird innerhalb einiger Stunden, wäre eh eine Pflichteinstellung

The good old 360 days of quickly opening the message menu to flame someone ingame ,but then taking 20 years to type out all the letters

Oh wow, theres more to this discussion, nicely useful!

says:

evaluate on case-by-case basis

So its kind of in a grey zone, not reliable doesnt mean bad source in that case. Useful link, altough wikipedia is also a grey zone in the sense that its information based on open source (everybody can edit it, and most liked proposals get through as I understand)

Thanks for the confirmation

Well what ground news wants to do -critical evaluation and media literacy- is so vital.

But ground news deciding on what exact position on the spectrum a source is, seems to achieve the exact oposite: make people depentend in questioning and finding a variety of sources.

Nowadays everything needs to happen in an instant.

If theres a solution that only takes half a snap, that will be the only relevant choice for the mass. Thats why Im instantly asking, because just today I referred to this source to someone else as a might-be-bad example but instantly realized, I will have to ask this on the next situation (now)

Anyways thanks for the correction!

but I thought big corpo is there to create jobs!

Test

maybe as European im not too well versed in US sources and judged too harsh based on anecdotal experience. All the news Ive seen are always on the “nothing has been said” or “thats reaching” side.

my bad then

oh no sick humans, but dead fish amassing are a given sigh

sorry for derailing a little:

why is there multiple links to choose from as a source? What exactly created that choosable format - are they automated, is this some system like groundnews or something?

If only we’d put those things in front of tree groups near highways, that somehow still exist

is newsweek considered a serious source? even this objectively right seeming headline is kind of a nothingburger, isnt it?

sorry for derailing. if thats not tolerated, i will stop
