The community. Right now, sometimes people post stuff and it gets down voted into oblivion before anyone who actually subscribes can see it. And then even when you go directly to the community, people don’t see that post because it’s down voted so much.
And I mean… The posts in question were so not offensive… Just probably not what the general public wants to read or engage with.
Let me give you a concrete example:
How was your church service today?
That’s it. That was one of the posts that was down voted into oblivion.
I don’t think it’s possible currently, but maybe a feature we can suggest for the future.
As for why your post got downvoted, it seems that Lemmy is majority Atheist, based on the amount of posts I see on “All / Hot”. Your community may be targeted by a small group if this is a recurring event.
I don’t have a good solution for you in the meantime. I know that communities can be blocked by instances, so you may be able to get in contact with lemmy.ml, beehaw, lem.ee, etc. instance owners and ask them to block your community from their feeds, or something like that.
