Down-brigades
Any tips on how to handle down brigades on a community? I’ve never moderated before and I noticed and a member noticed it as well.
If it’s just people who don’t like the post is there a log to see that? If it’s a bot how is that handled?

I needed an objective answer to “down brigading”. I have enough common sense to know the community topic is inherently contrarian, and predisposed to downvotes if it was sorting by all and new. The scenario of people disagreeing and downvoting, was also my natural conclusion. I’ve been working on other development/ server projects to contribute to the fediverse that are technical and it’s a learning curve.
This question was minor, but I had a panic button moment of “ what on earth did I miss now!? Did I miss something on the documentation for the moderation log!?”
Every interaction I’ve had on Lemmy has been extremely positive. But I’d be an idiot to not automatically think it’s the content of the community, duh.
It was fine you took the community topic into context, but you didn’t need to be rude, the cursing I don’t think helps in the support part in the name of the community we are talking in right now. For what it’s worth, being rude and adding unsolicited commentary is outdated.
Thank you for the actual helpful part of “there is nothing to worry about on the backend, carry on.”
Edit: I was too “apologetic girl “ in my first reply, New Year’s resolution to not always add “lol” and unnecessary “sorrys”
