    Because it’s like a dozen fucking people who post 90% of the content. I blocked like, I dunno – 20 people, and it took care of MOST of the weird ass fetish stuff popping up in my feed, leaving the odd cutie here or there.

    I’d rather have a severe lack of farmed content, for a lot more genuine posts. Regardless of if it’s “dead” or not. If I see users with like 20k post points, and 100 comment points, I block them.

    If there was a way to automatically do this (only show content from users with a certain ratio of posts to comments), I would.

        How is that weird? Most normal people comment far more than they post content. It’s content and link farmers, as well as bots who have the ratios that they do when it comes to posts vs comments.

        Like you… thumbsnap, thumbsnap, thumbsnap, thumbsnap… same fucking domain over and over again. Just farming up hoovered content, stripping original authors and lacking credit on where the content came from. You’re a great example, thanks for the reply.

            Don’t listen to them, you do good work friend. I know holidays can be rough and depression makes everything harder. I’m just a pm away if you need a sympathetic ear who gets it

          I’m doing it to drive traffic to communities I run (and the platform in a more general sense). I’m not a bot, I don’t care about personal upvotes or boosts. Small reddit-like sites need content.

            I mean, content is great – and you’re not a person I’d consider for blocking. Your ratio of content to comments is lopsided toward the content, but it’s not like these guys with 400k post and 2k comments. There’s a threshold. I block people who aren’t genuinely interested in communication on the platform.

      You can post a fuckton and still be “geniue” like most of my shitposting is shit I see on Instagram. The fact of the matter is if there was no content then this site would go dead. And then you’d leave. Do you see the catch 22 of your attitude? Honestly, you seem like a extremely pretentious person. The kind of person that just looks for a vague idea of perfection and lives in a perpetual state of disappointment when nothing matches it.
