I wouldn’t be so apprehensive about it if it were easier to be gainfully employed myself… If I can’t earn money easier they shouldn’t either. And they’re the ones causing this. I fight back every way I can.

Random wrong place I know, but dont wanna bother more people then necessary: Why cant i see upvotes/downvotes?
I read in some other post that some lemmy instances display the upvote/downvote ratio since the latest software update, so maybe because of that?
Did you perhaps accidentally disable it on your account settings?
Afaik instance’s have the ability to deactivate that.
So either that or you have it disabled in your account settings
Third possiblity: your app/frontend just doesn’t pull the data for that
I seriously think that they litelarly have no idea what to do with that much data. I mean, personalized ads, yeah, sure, but other than that… crimes maybe… can’t really see any other use for it…
I’d imagine it’s not practical to do anything on a personal level (aside from personalized ads) unless you really wanna look into one person in particular, so it’s probably more used for market research and whatnot. Easier to do a survey if you don’t have to ask anyone.
Personalized ads aren’t even practical. I’m not careful with data about me, and the targeted ads I see suck. If Google knows so much about me, they really ought to be better at it
Like yeah, I disable cookies and use an ad blocker, but I’m not building my own Linux distro, paying for six VPNs, and using TOR just too look at the Terraria wiki.
Is this a reference to recent Lemmy drama? If so, I get it!!
Well, don’t keep it to yourself, what’s the recent Lemmy drama?
Look into the “search engine to compete with DDG” post
