I’ve been seeing this trend in multilingual communities getting mass downvoted for posting content not in American English, and it’s affecting how people interact with respective communities that post non ACE posts.
One huge e.g. was Sword of Legends 4 coverage. The raw sources were massdownvoted. Meanwhile an ACE corporation got inversely upvoted for secondary sourcing information.
Is threadiverse really this xenophobic?
Or is there something we can do about this?
Here is the list of people who voted on the first one: https://lemvotes.org/post/retrolemmy.com/post/38774589
And the second one: https://lemvotes.org/post/lemmy.zip/post/65659001
@[email protected] downvoted the first and upvoted the second within 2 minutes of one another. Perhaps you can ask them their thoughts?
I have no issue with non American English (it’s not my native tongue), but I don’t think Chinese is English and the post you linked was tagged as one. The timing is just the way the posts showed up in my feed.
if we are going with @[email protected]’s strategy, we need to make these bigots uncomfortable.
