Someone, I'm thinking with multiple accounts, is downvoting EVERY comment I make. Mildly aggravating, mostly sad for someone like that. Can I find out who and just block them?

For awhile it was single downvotes, but it seems that moved up to 2-3 on each comment. Even the most benign stuff gets hit, the pattern is clear. Can I find this person and block them from seeing my posts? Never really delved into how lemmy works. Probably doesn’t matter much because after awhile the forget and leave me alone for a bit.

I fed a couple of your comments into lemvotes and found out who it was pretty easily. I imagine this is a bannable offense somewhere?

Yeah… there are a couple of toxic peeps I found from DB0, but I think it might work regardless. I could take a look and see.

Edit: Taking a look at the sight, it’s really good looking. Too bad their CoC is a thing, as that’s going to cause a lot of problems. Any CoC is bad for a community, and is how you do ethical source software, which I’m wholly against.

What’s the issue with their code of conduct, or having them in general?
Show threadMugita SokioJan 9
Basically, a CoC can be the opposite of what it intended to be, as it can be weaponized by people who want to start problems in a community. They can be vague, punishment can be selective, and they can be confusing messes. I tried to find something on how CoC’s are destructive in this manner, but I don’t recall what it was.

What specifically about the CoC will cause issues? Can you provide examples or specific concerns? Your comments aren’t making a lot of sense in the context of OP.

I was essentially commenting on a separate comment, not OP’s post in particular.

As for concerns about the CoC, people can read the CoC and learn how to bend the rules so as to get people in trouble. That was my huge red flag if there was a CoC.
