A thousand upvotes? Is this reddit?
Reddit karma uses a logarithmic function to determine the karma on a post. The first upvotes give 1 karma each, but the higher the number gets the less karma you get from additional upvotes.
This isn’t even some theory based on observations, the reddit algorithm used to be completely open source so you can see how it works on github (or at least how it used to work 7 years ago).
Front page reddit posts with 50k points most likely have over a million upvotes in reality
1,763.64:1
From 97 million active users from reddit vs 55k users from Lemmy.
It doesn’t happen often, but when it does it’s the equivalent of going viral around here lol
1k upvotes here is like the equivalent of 50k on Reddit (probably I’m operating on dated info, who knows how much they screwed with the upvoting system by now lmao)
I think crypto is good for transactions, not storing money.
Like, crypto in general sucks, but digital anonymous money transfer is almost impossible without it.
The underlying tech is actually very cool and neat, unfortunately it got co-opted by cryptobros and bastardized :(
This is what happens when you don’t use crypto as god intended: purchasing medication from India and subscriptions to indexers.
Purchase Bitcoin right before purchase. Watch the spare change left over go up and down and imagine all the millions you could be winning or losing.
Using xmr to order anabolic steroids from clearnet UGLs and to order acid and molly from darknet markets, as god intended 💪
And to top it off all the xmr comes from semi legal business ventures in the first place, so this is a nice way to get rid of black money
I had to order medication using crypto off a darket once, anti depressants for a loved one. I used something crazy like Kali on a cheap flash drive. It worked just fine and I felt like Hackerman.
My acid days are long gone. Psychedelics in general, actually. Mushrooms learned me enough and were a good teacher.
*checks ETH price*
Am I missing something? I’ve been staking since the switch. I’m doing just fine.
Omfg lol too good
