As someone who is primarily a poster here, let me just say, if you're going to downvote for a reason like this, please say that's why you're downvoting if that's what you're going to do, at least the first time or so.

I post the least controversial stuff possible, yet still get random downvotes. I have no clue why. I don't know if you don't like the actual content, if you hate the source, if you hate the comment I made, if you hate me personally, or if you're just a maniac that downvotes every single post. I want to post what makes my readers happy, but if you don't tell me what it is you don't like, I have no way of knowing!

I don't post any Reddit content, but I, for better or worse, have to primarily source things off Facebook. I repost it so none of you need to go there. I add what I feel is valuable commentary when needed. I answer your questions on the content so you don't have to go to the primary source you don't want to participate in, but I share it solely so I am sharing the primary source. I can't get much of the content I get (from animal rescues that have not the volunteers, time, or money to host their own sites, so they use what is free and easy and has the biggest audience because they rely on charitable giving) from anywhere else, and I will explain that to you if you still feel the need to downvote me every time anyway.

If you're going to downvote someone for a non-obvious reason like a really bad take, poor manners, etc, I feel you should tell them why if you would like to actually see a change in behavior or maybe find out why they do what they do.
