Okay, but also, who cares about internet votes? I never vote and I never look at my votes. I don't understand why people care about this or why it's even a feature. It doesn't work, people are clearly stupid about it, why does it exist.

That's a totally different topic.

I usually gauge internet votes with relevant content. I don't take them too seriously, though. For more technical questions, it can help.

But of course there's the occasional hivemind that is irritating - like if someone is asking for help when grieving a lost one, the most upvoted comment is some dark joke meme.
