It’s Prince of Egypt. That movie will always get upvotes.
I think it also has to do with Louis Armstrong singing this song
You posted a youtube short link on lemmy? Yeah, that's not going to go over well.
There's a lot of tech literate people here, and from my experience many of them dislike short-form video content with sound. Especially when its from Alphabet, Meta, etc.
I thought we agreed to use alt frontend redirects for backward compatibility with old stuff. YT links don’t bother me. I don’t even mind the tiktok style videos.
It’s the rich data harvesting apparatus surrounding the technology that I instinctively want to drown in a bathtub.
I hate short videos with sound. Sound is so demanding of attention so much so that it drags others into it. I don't even want to focus on it that much.
Fair. Having the option of sound is nice but if you’re blocking cookies and other local storage the only way an app can save a default mute preference is URL parameter, so I use StopTheMadness for stuff like that.
That guy is kind of sexist plus its a video on a big tech platform. Between the two I see why it wasn't liked.
This post is a bit better since it is simpler and relies on less obscure information. In general I'm not in favor of people going around promoting their religion but in this case it is actually reasonable. If you want to have Christian community that's fine but in my experience online Christian communities tend to harbor extreme views while being hostile to any real discussion. I do like that this post isn't just another screenshot of a 10 year old comment.
You might want to try a sub like !dankchristianmemes@lemmy.blahaj.zone for those.
Content that’s only relatable to people familiar with specific religious subcultures already starts off on the back foot traction-wise. Christian stuff, in particular, is so heavily encumbered by the past and present crimes of Christians that you really can’t refer to it neutrally and expect a positive response.
