Downvoting in general confuses me so often. There are times where a simple stated a fact, not even something controversial, will be downvoted. I’m like, who goes around just downvoting at random? The most recent one I recall is someone saying that everyone comes back to life in fighting games and I pointed out that Kliff from Guilty Gear never came back and I got downvoted for that. Like what??? I was hoping to get some replies and have a decent conversation there, but my comment got hidden due to the downvotes.
Could be accidental down votes. I mean half the upvotes I give are an accidental tap lol.
I accidentally tapped yours while trying to scroll down and a raindrop hit the screen! I'mma leave it tho because so true
Idk about lemmy but on Reddit up/down are for relevance not whether you like something
I rarely downvote, yet I keep seeing posts and comments marked as downvoted by my account. Seems it's just very easy to fatfinger it and not notice.
On my app I have to hold on the comment to reply or downvote. I can upvote easily but downvoting can't really be unintentional.
