    I don’t mind the frequent posting, as it keeps this asylum at the top of “All”, but the strip itself is too dark for me. I appreciate it as an art form, but I don’t want to read it over my oatmeal.

      Maybe there should be a chiefobrienatwork community separate from tenforward? Comics usually do better in a dedicated sub, then people can also ignore it if they don’t want that specific content. I’ve seen a few people bothered by about it now.

      It is also a bit karma-farmey, this comic isn’t new and there are hundreds of it - is OP going to post every single one?

        It’s hard to call someone a karma farmer when Lemmy doesn’t accumulate your upvotes like Reddit did.

        The voting system is just to set view ranking for posts and comments. There are scripts that tabulate votes on an account, but that’s a lot of work that no one else will see.

          Lemmy doesn’t show it but it is accumulated, from fedia I can see you have over 42k reputation points for example.

          And yes, it is a meaningless number. That never stopped people before though.

        I get what you’re sayin, but there’s no point in karma farming here. This is a long time poster, spending a chunk of time adding content that is fresh for, perhaps, 90% of us nerds.

          Right but equally there are only nine comments 10 now on the entire thread and only one of them is about the post itself the other is about complaining about the post.

          The signal to noise ratio appears to have dropped to about as low as it can get.

        I hope so! I only caught it sporadically on its original run, so I’m glad to have it showing up as an easily digestible daily bite of existential anxiety on my Lemmy feed.
