Earlier today I made a comment that someone must have found controversial, because I noticed that all of my posts and most of my comments made in the last month have received about a dozen downvotes each, all happening today. Has anyone experienced anything similar and is there anything that can be done to combat that sort of thing from happening? I think that reddit used to only shadow downvote when voting from a user’s profile. I’m assuming Lemmy isn’t that advanced yet.
Stop caring about votes in general, it’s bad for your mental health. If anything focus on replies and discussions you spark as that is far more meaningful engagement.
