It’d be a lot easier to not make a bot at all if that was the case. They aren’t intentionally not trying to help, they’re intentionally spending as few resources as possible on helping while still doing enough to satisfy most customers. It’s shitty but it’s not malicious like you guys are implying.

I assume it was just a miss when they overhauled the code. You can probably block it through the website on your account in the meantime.

It says excluding Vatican City, which makes sense, but it just makes me want to know how bad the ratio is for there.

The latter for sure. And to be fair, my experience wasn’t identical to what the post was asking. It wasn’t so much a house party as it was having ~10 friends over. And my dad was often home, just already asleep. I definitely wouldn’t have tried to have a legitimate house party with the cameras around.

My dad did have cameras all over the house while I was in high school. But there weren’t any in my room so we could hang out in there. There also weren’t any in the bathroom so we could stash the alcohol in there and just pour it into cups.

Both of these required a parent not that dedicated to actually stopping his kids from partying though. But a parent sufficiently dedicated was always going to be able to find out somehow.

I just checked and it’s not happening on one of the other accounts I have signed in. It could be an issue with that one account or instance.

Something I just thought of while typing this is if it’s pulling the list of top posts in the last day and then hiding all the ones I’ve read before, then nothing will show up there until enough newer posts overtake the top ones I’ve already read. But to me it would make more sense to filter out the read posts before pulling the top posts, but that might be a Lemmy thing not a Memmy thing. But that would only be the case if Top whatever pulled a set number of top posts and didn’t pull all posts and sort them by top.

Yeah it is, not sure what might be going on. Thanks for looking into it though!

Some updates here. The Subscribed feed seems to work more consistently, but not always. I just opened up the app (which defaults to All) and it worked but then I refreshed the feed and it said No posts again.
