This is completely counter productive to growing Lemmy. I absolutely despise discord. Look at the network traffic it generates and tell me wtf they are doing. They wonโt tell you. Their business model will leave you completely dumbfounded as to how they exist. Everything shared on the platform is lost in a black hole unavailable to the outside world and everything shared is a privacy nightmare. Posting this, pinning it here, and locking it is one of the biggest trolls possible. It pisses me off every time I log in. โEveryone else does itโ is the excuse of idiots. Discord makes absolutely no sense to anyone that actually cares to look into it, read the user agreement, and ask sane questions about what they are doing.

Which has no merit at all to begin with, since out-of-instance users do not see the pinned posts of Lemmy.world. Heโs right to call out most of you for simply concern-trolling.
Most of you
How hateful. Iโm a user of this instance and I dislike that stupid pinned message. Itโs ok to have a Discord chat, but to have a promotion permanently pinned is a power trip move.
Heโs literally telling you that most of the downvotes are not from lemmy.world (because as an admin you can only see downvotes from your local instance, which means the rest are certainly not from there).
As said elsewhere, people on Lemmy are alt juggling quite a lot these days.
Having someone voting from another does not mean the user doesnโt have an account on LW.
