Here’s the thing. I’m a mod for a small-time community for a niche interest, !castles@lemm.ee I’m also on Mastodon, and was before my Reddit exodus. I follow #castles as well as a few other related topics on Matsodon, so I get quality toots, such as this: https://mastodon.scot/@McNige/110926238926867959, that I wish I could just crosspost over to my community. Currently, I have to repackage the toot, which isn’t a huge problem, but currently I just drop them a note on Mastodon that their content has been posted elsewhere on the Fediverse. What would be nice is if people who comment on the Lemmy post also get fed into OP’s toot. More sharing, more connection, more activity.
On the flip side, I’ve subscribed to @castles@lemm.ee on my Mastodon instance and, while it’s good to be able to follow posts in feed form, it looks like ass: 
I realize I should try this with Pixelfed, but I haven’t made that leap yet.
I don’t know, am I thinking crazy here? I’d think we’d want everything in the Fediverse soup interoperable in a more seemless way. Is this a feature request or am I missing some way to do this better?
I can smell this comment
Victory?
U ok bud?
Just living rent free in your head, lil man. Go ahead and have your nap now. You must be tired after that big tantrum of downvote spam, and you gotta start early tomorrow if you’re gonna keep up.
You tagged me in this thread… but you’re living “rent free in my head”?? I don’t think I’ve ever interacted with you personally outside of a weird DM you sent me a month ago.
Seriously man are you ok?
You decided to spam downvote multiple posts before you were banned from our forum. Then you continued to do so, after being blocked and banned, on my reasonable comments against racism, transphobia, and about law outside the forum (including one comment that was nothing but the text of the 14th amendment), proving yourself in the process to be a racist, a transphobe, and an absolutely idiotic fascist who doesn’t realize that kbin lets everyone see what you downvote.
I feel it’s my civic duty to call your dumbass out, as you’re clearly an unhinged, vengeance driven stalker who’s likely doing the same or worse to other users.
As to the reverse trolling, I’ll know I’m out of your head when you stop spam downvoting (which is really a useless effort, as you’re gonna need at least another 2k downvotes a week to keep up). Calling you out on your dumbass nazi self is just icing on the cake.
Hey Arotrios, sorry for what you have to go through. I imagine you already know that, but I think it’s worth reminding you : you can hide upvotes/downvotes in Lemmy’s preferences by unticking the “show scores” option. That way, stalking and serial downvoting is just wasting the abuser time and finger’s articulations. :) Honestly, rating everything people say is a toxic feature anyway, it’s both addictive and generating anxiety. I’m glad Lemmy allows to disable it, I’m way more at peace since I’ve done it.
@anafroj Thanks for the kind words and advice - much appreciated. Unfortunately on Kbin (where I run my forum) we don’t have that option - the software exceeds lemmy in many ways, but there are number of lemmy features (including removing downvotes) that I’d like to see on Kbin. I’m glad that the solution worked for you and your users.
To compensate on Kbin, since the forum I run is built as be a safe space for creative folks to submit OC and their inspirations, one of our rules is that if you downvote, you need to leave a comment explaining why. This allows critique without anonymous negativity, which adds nothing to the discussion.
As for myself, I don’t care that the trolls above are obsessed with downvoting what my profile posts (which literally says “For Amusement Purposes Only” at the top - another indication that they can’t read properly).
They tell more on themselves than I with the downvote spam, and it actually helps drive engagement with my commentary because they’re triggering the “activity” sorting algorithm - it’s not like reddit where enough downvotes will actually hide anything. But neither troll is smart enough to realize this, so that’s why I just smile and tell them to keep digging. If they keep going, I get more upvotes through the additional views than they could possibly downvote, so that’s a win from my perspective. If they get tired and stop, that’s a bit of a win as well, even though they’re no longer contributing to my marketing campaign… ;)
Oh, my bad, I have yet to get used to the fact that we’re having the same discussions over different apps. :)
If you can install custom stylesheets (some options are documented here), I’ve tested this rule to work for removing downvotes:
It will work only for you, though, not for other people on your forum (unless you’re an instance owner and can change the website stylesheets file).
An other rule to remove upvotes if you want to:
He literally calls me out in threads every couple days because I downvoted something in his subreddit once.
It’s weird, creepy behavior. Don’t encourage him.
You got banned because you spam downvoted multiple comments without commentary, then continued the behavior after being asked to back up your downvotes with comments. You’ve escalated and continued the conflict by following me around the Fediverse downvoting my comments outside the forum - for over two weeks now. I will continue to call you out until your weird and creepy behavior stops.
You can play innocent all you’d like, but there’s literally a public paper trail of your behavior, that any one can see by going through my comments and seeing the same two sad little trolls who downvote every comment they can.
You want me to go away, get the fuck out of my life. That’s it.
You don’t want to? Fine, I’ll use your downvotes to call out your history as a racist, transphobe, fascist bigoted idiot again and again and again, because each time I do, folks are appreciative of being warned of your behavior, and I end up with new followers and traffic. Besides, I have no moral problem stalking a known stalker to keep them from harassing someone else.
This ain’t one you’re gonna win kid. Take a hint and your pacifier and go home to mommy.
Wow you sound… hinged…
