Holy shit! Good for them! Hope they see the benefits of the fediverse at some point.

True, but if they hadn't seen it was me that downvoted them in the first place, they wouldn't know who to stalk, and I wouldn't have to call anyone out at all. Really though, I can still see both sides here. I'm just bitter it happened to me. Lol

I'm personally a fan of pirate broadcast intrusions of someone wearing a Max Headroom mask and getting away with it. As you can see.

Holy shit! Does eBay think they're the Mafia now? I can't help but think of the horse head in The Godfather.

Just the usual out of touch fear mongering the VR community has been getting for years. Now that Apple has joined the party, I expect a lot more of it in the future, unfortunately.

If you're in to VR, "The 7th Guest VR" came out last fall, and it's actually really good.

Maybe it's an iOS thing, but I can definitely do PiP with Premium on the official app on Android.

Nebula is great, but it should be pointed out it is a paid service.

Coincidentally, I spent about two hours last night just finding pictures I could use for posters. Then I downloaded all kinds of user made content, and haven't even gotten into doing anything with it yet. I've only actually played one game so far. Lol

@gamingonlinux I can respond from a completely different place like Kbin! Why are some people against this?

Depending on the headset you're using, she could just message you either through Steam or the Meta app.

I don't. That's why I called them imaginary internet points. Lol. My point was about the fact that you can see who downvotes you.

The only 3rd party I can find connected to this is Have I Been Pwned. Are they not reputable? Or is this not who you're talking about? Genuinely curious as I was thinking about trying out Mozilla.

Agreed. Also, party on dude!

Oh, I'm aware. I've just never heard of "Downvote Fairies". In any case that was never my point, as I've explained.

Who's freaking out my dude? My point was this wouldn't have happened if THEY didn't know who I was. You and others make some good points about some how this happens regardless, and how there are upsides to seeing who downvotes you. I honestly wasn't aware this was a common thing until now. It's why I asked if this has happened to anyone else. Chalk it up to me being a bit naive.

?

I think this is correct.

Fair enough. I tend to think downvotes are warranted when it's not adding anything to the conversation and/or are somewhat hostile. Not that it's worth anything at this point, but the downvote was because I literally just explained myself on the very post they were responding to. People are just putting words in my mouth at this point just because they want to disagree, and at some point it's easier to downvote that to repeat myself.

It's certainly beginning to look that way. DRM ruins everything.

Hi there Dark thoughts! I'm just curious as to why you've downvoted every single comment I've ever made on Kbin. Is this something you do to everyone who downvotes you one time? Seems a little extreme and immature don't ya think?

If you have a decent amount of upvotes, it's a good sign you're not a bot or a troll. At least that's how I use it.

Can't unsee it now.

What the actual fuck? One downvote is all it took and this dude thinks I'm a troll. (Make that two, lol) If anyone else is reading this, I'm very real and this is my main account. Lol. Jesus Christ.

You see? That's literally not what I said. I seem to have struck a nerve with you here and I'm not sure why. But go ahead. Give me my downvote that I apparently care so much about.

Mastodon was like that for a while. Most of my feed was non-stop rants about "the birdsite" for months. While there's still plenty of that, it's mostly moved on to other things. I suspect the same will eventually happen with kbin/lemmy. Might be a while though, since there's still plenty of people still migrating over, and it makes sense they would want to talk about it.

You're right. I'd almost completely forgotten this existed.

Nothing new. It's just an overview of how shady and scammy the browser is. I still see a lot of people recommending it without knowing the backstory.
