I've been noticing that ever since I joined Lemmy over a year ago. Feels like people are way more trigger happy with downvotes here. It's not a big deal though.

It's just more visible since downvotes and upvotes are shown separately. On the old site, that hasn't been the case for years.

Nah, I noticed that on clients without separate counts. A LOT of comments go down to 0 before climing back again (or not).

I think there are a few unchecked bots that do that. Every once in a while I'll make a post or comment and it goes to 0 immediately.

I think they start on 0 here though. Reddit automatically upvotes your own posts, but not here
