From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Or people who don't want to see low effort meme content. There's a community specifically for that sort of thing and Linux. linuxmemes@lemmy.world

Lemmy.one doesn't allow downvoting though, so I didn't downvote it, but I sure as heck didn't upvote it.

Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise. No misinformation No NSFW content No hate speech, bigotry, etc

In my defence i did check the rules if Memes where allowed!

Huh? I thought that it only applies to posts on your instance and not all the interactions that users of this instance can do. Am I wrong?

[–] greybeard@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nope, as a Lemmy.One user, I cannot downvote anywhere. It's probably my only complaint with Lemmy.One, actually. I'm not sure I would have downvoted this, but it is the type of thing I don't want to see.

I understand that instance may disable downvoting to create a "safe" space on it but I don't understand why it would limit you from downvoting on instances that DO allow you to downvote stuff.

[–] 0x4E4F@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, looks like it's a global setting. If your instance doesn't allow it, you're not allowed to downvote anywhere.

Can a person outside of instance with disabled downvotes downvote stuff on that instance?

[–] 0x4E4F@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, that's what I was trying to explain. If downvotes are disabled on your instance, you can't downvote anything anywhere on any instance.

[–] Martineski@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm asking for the opposite, if your instance allows you to downvote stuff then can you downvote stuff that's on instances that don't allow them?

[–] 0x4E4F@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, like beehaw. I can downvote stuff on beehaw, tried it just to see if I can.

But, I don't think they can see the downvotes.
