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.

    Good suggestion. I actually don’t keep track of those stats, but since you do, could you update me regularly on them? Thanks for your help! :)

      Well, I’m sure I or someone else here will post them again because it’s such an incredible achievement. You’ve definitely got the #1 most downvotes on Lemmy, at least from what I’ve seen. I’ll include it with your greatest hits like “I only post the propaganda, I didn’t write it!” or “bring it up to the mods [so that I can hide behind them]”
