        The last thing I upvoted from you was 6 days ago, pretty funny ngl https://lemmy.world/post/50127167

        You usually you post some pretty tame shit so I don’t really like often, but it’s clear people do like your posts.

        But my god, this “who is?” series is pretty stupid, maybe up there with the “Sponge Bob Adventures” dude posting motivational quotes.

        I mean, look, I’m not the fun police so I’ll never tell you to stop. But even if you just included “wrong answers only” in the title, I think it’d be a lot more enjoyable for people.

        But again, do ya thing or whatever. It’s a shit post, and I’m just text on a screen.

        Well, I used “help” in this context to mean “benefit” , as in, no one fucking likes these random ass pictures of celebrities titled “who is famous guy”

          I like em and I contribute vastly more good content than the 5 times I’ve done this. Some of them have gotten really funny comments and entertained me. You’re getting bent out of shape over me relatively rarely experimenting. If the only thing I did was post these, I’d concede. But I make consistently well liked contributions very frequently. I feel like that earns me the ability to fuck around with this stupid shit for kicks. If they don’t fit community guidelines they should be removed, you have the ability to report these to the mods.

            I don’t think you really need to justify yourself, honestly. That is why there are upvote/downvote/report buttons. I am more curious about this experiment though: what sparked it? what are you trying to measure/do? I see these randos and sometimes I feel like I should do a search, but the feeling passes quickly and I scroll on.

            sure, you do post a lot, and some of it is good. But the feedback from me for this experiment is that it sucks.

            Sure, this is the place to put shit like this, I guess, but it just ends up looking like you forgot which textbox was the search engine.
