If I wanted to have a maximally downvoted post, how would I go about accomplishing that?
-
I don't want to be blocked or ignored, just have one post with a few hundred downvotes to see what the level is like on Lemmy. Also, I don't mean it in the sense of the famous reddit test post that said it should not be upvoted. I mean, I want to know how to construct a post, and where to put it, that will get it downvoted hard. I don't think asklemmy will work. Correct me if I'm wrong.
praise ai generated slop and memecoins and nfts and that should get you some more downvotes

you could post satire

GolemScratch that. Just say Last of Us 2 is either the best game ever or the worst game ever.
Or saying Breath of the Wild/mario odyssey is horrible and listing nitpicks

Did you try asking "Will you please downvote this?" in "nostupidquestions".
I don't think it'll beat ragebait though.

Yeah, I think the first one is the most likely path.
I don't post actual threads, but my most downvoted comment was this one that I'm quite proud of:
Debian is a joke, it is so far out of date it is unusable for anything except cave-painting or maybe a stone circle.
Ubuntu is way better.
So yeah, I'd recommend OP baits linuxmemes. I think it has more users, more touchy, less sense of humour.
But you're also less likely to get your post banned in a memes forum. -
Good point. I guess that's what I'm trying to figure out.
Claiming a basic false thing as something true and saying that everyone keeps trying to gaslight you might work. Same as the stackexchange effect, people will engage to correct you more than anything else. Making it relate to insulting a large group would probably help too ig.
