    A lot of Lemmy communities need rules against misleading/editorialised headlines already, it’s as bad or worse than Reddit right now.

      This is why the downvote system is such a failure of an idea.

      If people were as smart as they think they are, they’d just downvote stuff like this and it would go away. People post this junk because they are whores for upvotes

        it’s easier to create multiple accounts on fediverse than on mainstream social media websites. Then just upvote your own posts with the bots.

          Why would any individual person go to this much trouble for upvotes?

          That sounds more like what a country would do to infect the people with their propaganda
