I have it on good authority they're busy finding Nazi links to defunct 90s bands.

My advice would be to avoid the Vegas shit show experience and go to an event with feeder series races.

Watching events in person is nothing like watching them from home. There is a lot of downtime when F1 is the only series racing. If the venue is interesting (imo Vegas isn't) then you can wander around and explore a bit but in a place like Vegas it's going to be a lot of sitting around, and they've already shown they don't care about the fan experience.

I'm sure there's fun to be had at any F1 event but Vegas wouldn't be my first choice, or even on the list.

Folks don't be afraid to talk to that special someone in your life about ED.

That's right, Effort Dysfunction is a disease that's a laughing matter until it happens to you or someone you know. Don't become a statistic. Making a few low effort memes today can save you a lifetime of embarrassing ED ridicule.

Hahahahaha amazing!

I knew I was paying too much for autism.

This is a solid eRR0r dIvid€ b¥ zE®o/10, well done great post!

I have downvoting disabled anyway but it sucks that others are influenced by it.

I think there are a lot of people on Lemmy trying to turn public spaces into their private space, or shape communities into what they want instead of fostering a new one from the ground up.

It's dead simple to start an instance or even a community on an instance that aligns with how people feel. Somehow instead we've defaulted to projecting negativity, which inhibits growth. Lemmy can be better.

How motivating do you think it is to post to smaller communities just to get an unrepresentative number of downvoters right off the bat? I can't speak for OP but I'm sure there are plenty that don't post or reply at all because of it.

I think at its core downvoting can be fine but on smaller platforms it's easily abused as a form of content suppression, bullying, etc. Lemmy seems to be particularly prone to account hopping downvote spam, which sucks but it is what it is.

Thankfully Lemmy is flexible enough to create what you want more privately if one is so inclined. I'm smoking weed about it.
