What gets me is like why are people upvoting this shit here? Most of these posts the top comment is complaining about the censorship yet these posts get thousands of upvotes.
Typically I won’t vote on the post because it doesn’t warrant a downvote imo (but the censorship usually annoys me enough that I won’t upvote either) and I’ll upvote the comments clowning on OP for sharing censored bs on Lemmy.
With enough people like me, and some who do not care about the censorship, I can see how we end up in that situation
If people are are ambivalent about the censorship, they probably also don’t care that people are complaining about it. To me it’s a mildly interesting quirk for an image to be self censored like that, but I’m also not going to downvote people who don’t like it since I don’t have any problem with their opinion.
Maybe people who can look past the censorship? Or people who understand that the people doing the censoring will get in trouble on certain types of social media if they don’t?

Bots? On Reddit most of the meme economy was ran by bots anyway, so up or down voting didn’t matter.
But here. I know we have bots doing posting of some memes. But are they doing voting as well?
