Who reads this anyway? Nobody, that’s…. Oh wait. Some people do. I guess I should put something worth reading in here then. Well here’s a test. How much text can you put in here? Who knows? We’ll find out together.

I could write just about anything here, and it wouldn’t really matter. I could go on an on about nothing in particular, and there would still be space left unused. If you’re like really verbose, you could write about any pointless topic without ever reaching a conclusion, and you wouldn’t even hit the character limit. Like, how long could this text be before you hit the wall? Surely, there’s a limit? You can’t just dump a chapter of lorem ipsum in here, now can you?

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus mollis urna sit amet augue mollis interdum. Praesent sed massa eu quam vestibulum elementum. In pharetra sodales

Wow, that’s a lot of text. Previously, you couldn’t have this much, but now they’ve changed the settings, which is pretty neat.

  • What about the Marxist-Leninist, communist, socialist, anti-capitalist crowd? I don’t know if they hang around on other platforms, but they certainly are present here on Lemmy.

    Also, what about sexual and gender minorities? I get the feeling that there are a lot of queer people on Mastodon. Maybe that could be another selection criteria.

    Like this:

    Are you queer? -> Mastodon

    Are you a Marxist? -> Lemmy










  • Oh, I’ve read lots of those comments. Truly fascinating stuff, and I think there is a reason. Here are some guesses.

    1. That user is suffering from some sort of mental issues. This seems like the obvious option, but I don’t think it’s the most likely one.
    2. It’s a social experiment. Someone is using it to gather information on how people respond to hostility online. I would love to carry out an experiment like that, but can’t justify the negativity that would be inherently involved in it. I’m really curious to find out how different instances, communities or even other social medias respond. Are some places more hostile or mature than others? What does it take to get your messages deleted or account banned? Who knows.
    3. It’s a piece of online art. That account is used for making a statement about online debates, hostility and the ways people react.
    4. It’s a personal goal. Who has the most downvoted account on Lemmy? That’s an achievement of sorts, I guess. This is the kind of stuff people do when they’ve already completed the main quest and most of the side quests.
    5. Plain old trolling. Sort of like point 4, but for entertainment purposes instead of questionable bragging rights.
