More content is good in a system like Lemmy which is designed around filtering. So continue posting!

Lemmy is VERY hateful. In some cases more than Reddit because we have less people but more radical. the amount of hate one can get just because it mentioned specific words is insane. There is no debate here, if you mention a couple of specific topics and trigger words you are sent to hell.

And I’m not even talking about .ml, that place is psychotic.

What you should do is stop caring about “karma”, it has no value (even more so here, it’s not even a thing). Don’t do things to get likes, do them because you like doing them and/or think they can help others.

All posting here is useful at this point

I have you at +10, so you’re at least posting things I find meaningful. That being said, you post a lot of political things, so expect to bring many sides of the conversation to light. The fediverse has more types than Reddit.

None of us are useful to Lemmy because Lemmy is not “useful.” Lemmy is a shit-pile of all of our combined thoughts and efforts. So, while no social media site is “useful,” Lemmy brings us a place to be entertained and informed/misinformed.

Most of your posts are shit. Most of my posts are shit. While we each usually shit in our own corners, we occasionally look at each other’s shit and say, “hmmm… This shit stinks.” Or, “this shit is a little nutty and I like that!” And even less frequently, we cross paths while shitting and our shit combines to create a new type of shit that other people can enjoy.

So, don’t try to measure your Lemmy “usefulness” based on karma, and instead focus on the shit. I often appreciate your shit, and your username always gives me a chuckle. Whether anyone likes it or not, all of our shit makes Lemmy’s shit the shit it is.

I appreciate you, @return2ozma@lemmy.world and if you left us it would be a major loss.

I pay no attention to down-voters. The growing popularity of the fediverse brings as many bad people with it as good ones.

Only you can answer that.

I generally appreciate what you’re doing

The question isn’t if you’re useful to Lemmy or not. We don’t deserve to exert any weight on your heart with opinions and upvotes.

Are you doing something you think is worth your time, with or without external validation? Is this something you would do if you thought it was basically the internet version of putting messages in a bottle?

When you are old and on your death bed, what will the value of your reddit karma be? What is the value of it now?

Do things that matter to you. Do things that help you grow and be a better person.

Let go of the thought that updoots matter and you will find harmony.

I appreciate you mate 🫂

Every person that logs in and interacts in good faith in some way is useful to Lemmy.

I see people complain about you a lot, but I’ve never felt like anything you’ve contributed to Lemmy has been negative or harmful.

Let the haters hate. Block exists for a reason. If those losers blocked you and every other superposter who provides content they’d complain that nobody posts anything.

As you said, you can’t make everyone happy no matter what you do. Just do what you feel like you want to do right now.

Seems like a bit of a “pickme” post. You do you, don’t worry about your 2 million updoots on reddit.
