Yeah. This .NET Blog post was not for me either, but I thought it would be on topic for the .NET community. I guess this community doesn't want this kind of content, even if it's the official dev blog. :) And not just to the point of ignoring, but actively down-voting.

It's probably not subscribers to the community but people who insist on browsing all with no effort for curation of their feed. Many people complain of others polluting their feed as if they have no way to effectively filter by topic.

I'm sorry, but if people browse All, and are allowed to downvote what's in there, how is that their fault? It's an allowed use case of the Lemmy platform.

It's like telling people not to use the chainsaw in Quake "because they're too lazy to use other weapons."

I'm not sure how you read a fault claim from their comment.

You can say the UI doesn't support the mechanics of Lemmy, which is true. But that doesn't change how the mechanics work.

Voting is curation. Communities theme topics. Voting for personal curation in an all feed is contrary to the shared nature of posts.

Voting for personal curation in an all feed is contrary to the shared nature of posts.

But where's the evidence that there is "voting for personal curation" happening? Have you been DM'd by people saying "Stop posting this content to my All feed"?

The truth of the matter is, it's an allowed action.

That's like servers complaining about patrons going to a restaurant 10 minutes before closing time. They say "such inconsiderate people! Now we have to stay until they're done!" When in reality, it's not the patrons' fault. It's management's fault. Personally, if I was a restaurant owner that closes at 10pm, I'd post a note saying "last time to serve walk-ins: 9:15pm. Patrons must leave by 10:15pm, no exceptions" out of respect for my employees.

Same deal. Don't complain to people doing a perfectly valid action regardless of intention. Complain to the admins or Lemmy's devs.

From what I can read in this thread, we had a discussion. We didn't complain [to or about users]. We reasoned and speculated on what is happening and the effects of it.

The only one complaining directly and strongly is you. Telling us we shouldn't be complaining.

The only one complaining directly and strongly is you.

And that's a problem how? This is a discussion board after all.

Telling us we shouldn’t be complaining.

And you can either take it or leave it. I'm okay with either.
