Who cares about votes? These are really just cheap ego boosters.
It feels nice when people like a thing you made. Up votes are an easy way to see how many people like it.
You just gotta remember that they're proportional to population. 1000 upvotes on a larger community may be equivalent to 25 on a small one.
Also on Lemmy upvotes don't accumulate on your account like they do on reddit so they don't mean dick in the long run.
