This is how I do it but be aware voting through this method leads to shitty mods banning you under the pretence of drive by voting. Doesnāt stop me but just FYI.
Their justification is youāre not a participant in the community, yet youāre voting. Of course theres 0 reflection on the content coming out of their subs comm and it has no weight in the decision.
For brigading I can understand but a couple of mods have a very low bar for it. One banned me recently because of it. Likely because two low effort post made it to all in a short window from a meat base comm. Iāve downvoted vegan post more often back in the early days and they dgaf.
Funnily enough I was just banned and blocked by a mod when I commented on a post mentioning that they've accidentally reposted an image they've already submitted. Kind of surprised since I recognized the username and thought they were decent enough as a user.
while bans are not something iāve done, iāve noticed a lot of downvotes in !shittyasklemmy@lemmy.uhhoh.com from people that clearly havenāt checked what community the post is in
For that comm I could see users downvoting it for a lot of the post being negative/rants but yeah it does happen when it isnāt deserved unfortunately. I just donāt think banning should be a knee jerk response as other mods have done.
I would be surprised if they havenāt automated it at this point. Iāve been meaning to post about it since itās reeks of vote manipulation to me but Iāll give it some more time first.
