Out of curiosity, what's the purpose of multiple accounts?

I don't see a problem with that. I don't personally care who specifically voted for anything, but I also don't mind if someone knows I was the one who did it
I would probably do it for 6 month's income as a lump sum to fix that 1 thing. I wouldn't go back on payroll that's for sure
I kept getting shadow banned constantly. My comments ending up with 1 view no up or down votes. For completely arbitrary reasons as well. And I got completely banned from a few communities by accidentally using extremist terminology (?).
And yes I don't doubt they removed it for a reason, it makes it a much less friendly place. Like you're putting down and directly affecting the other person rather than just disagreeing. It's hard to explain.
It does feel like a cult doesn't it? Like the church of the steel God or something. Silicon valley practically performing summoning rituals on their PC's to try and create sentience ASAP
Lemmy has this feature which is really nice... -20 points doesn't show +20 and -40. It mentally feels a lot better to know that 20 people agreed with you even if more people disagreed
Yeah exactly. I set up Zorin OS for my family who are not tech savvy at all. It was a bit different at first but they said they felt much "calmer" using Linux. Modern Windows feels like trying to read an article online or watch a YouTube video without an ad blocker.
It seems to me

It's just corporate doublespeak messing with your head. The normal person translation is:
oh fuck something might have happened. But we don't want shareholders to panic. Uhh, so everyone, please pretend everything is fine.

My favourite part is when your style or the auto formatter changes over time and you have to decide between:
- running the auto formatter on 200,000 12 year old code files
- doing them one by one
- formatting them when you have to change that file
- or ignoring all the warnings forever (it's this one, this is what you do)
Plus it doesn't fix the problem of auto formatters writing ugly code. You can't easily tell the auto formatter that early returns can be bracketless for brevity, but nothing else can be. Unless you add a comment like \\ ignore-rule-2753674 which makes me want to throw up
That makes sense. I kind of just assume everyone can find out my identity if they try hard enough. So my infosec is as if I'm speaking to a stranger on a nearby train. They could probably follow me home but I don't give them a reason to and I don't say anything incriminating.
