We’ve had some trouble recently with posts from aggregator links like Google Amp, MSN, and Yahoo.

We’re now requiring links go to the OG source, and not a conduit.

In an example like this, it can give the wrong attribution to the MBFC bot, and can give a more or less reliable rating than the original source, but it also makes it harder to run down duplicates.

So anything not linked to the original source, but is stuck on Google Amp, MSN, Yahoo, etc. will be removed.

    It doesn’t need your posts, as evident by the massive amounts of downvotes your propaganda receives. No one is celebrating you.

        Ah, right, I left that off of my script notes! It’s one of your classics. I’ll be sure to keep that one in mind moving forward.

        I, for one, am happy to see people treating your posted content the way they do: like spam and propaganda. If you keep it up, you’ll reach your next major milestone of 50,000 downvotes. Truly something to aspire to.

            You sure find propaganda and spamming interesting. You’re prolific in posting it, that’s for damn sure.

            Luckily, they get downvoted so fast that they never cross the feeds of those browsing hot and top. As long as that’s happening, I’m happy and content.

              Meh, most people I know sort by “new.”

              But if you think downvoting keeps my articles from being seen, then that means there’s no reason for you to be upset by me posting.

              Because no one is going to see it, right? Thanks!

                Oh, sorry, I think you’re confused again; I’m here to help show the few people who do see your posts that you’ve got a clear agenda and pretty much only post propaganda and otherwise spam the politics community. Luckily, the downvotes show that much of the active community here is already aware, but in case they don’t understand why you’re getting downvoted, I want to show them why. I don’t care about anything else past letting that be known.

                Oh, and I like keeping track of the rotation of like 10-15 talking points you have. Keeps things interesting and entertaining.

                  I’m not confused at all. You’re totally welcome to do that. LIke I said, I think it’s great you’re passionate about something, and I’m glad that I can be a part of it.

                  Especially since I’m going to continue posting what I find interesting. Thank you, friend! :)

                    Okay, as long as we’re clear that I don’t care about your thoughts or opinions we’re good here! I’ll see you on your next inflammatory propaganda post, but I’ll probably wait for you to say your go-to “I don’t write the [propaganda], I just post the [propaganda], take it up with the [publisher/mods] if you don’t like it” lines there first.

              I don’t believe my posts are either of those, but you are free to believe what you want to believe.

              I respect your right to have your opinion, even if it differs from mine. Thank you! :)

                I do, and Lemmy agrees, so I’m happy with that. Everyone can have an opinion, but like most of Lemmy, I don’t respect yours because it’s based in propaganda and right-wing talking points.

                  As you point out, not all of Lemmy agrees with you.

                  Some seem to be interested in the articles I post. So no worries.

                  Thanks for the interesting discussion, friend! :)

                    Oh, right, like 4 other third party protest voters, too. Can’t forget them! Too bad there’s so few of them here, otherwise you might not always swim in downvotes.
