Wait, is this a new community? I bet you it's a federation issue. If this is the first time that the lemvotes server has been pointed to that community. It may not have a copy of anything on hand to actually check against. Depending on how it works. Piefed and Lemmy both can take a while to populate a new community. And won't do so until the first person from its instance requests to view them. So you might not see much of anything at first but over the next few days especially if there are repeated attempts to access it should try to load in the backlog. But it's not instant. So it may just be a legitimate 404.
Ah! Ok. That makes sense and seems plausible. The Linuxsucks Sucks community is a little over a month old and hasn't had all that many folks participate.
Yes I'm Loosely aware of the drama surrounding the reference community. I just don't give it any mind. And use Linux or BSD on everything. If they want to be a pissy power tripping baby in their community then they can. But I don't think they should expect too many to participate either.
Fair. Definitely don't blame you. I only participate because it's fun to poke the bear and have fun at Madthumbs' expense sometimes. Like the Buttcoin community (or rather "communities" - there are at least 4 on Lemmy) does with cryptobros. And Artificial Ignorance does with generative AI.
heh I do that sometimes still I suppose. Though much more in moderation at my age.
