You're my most upvoted individual on Lemmy, cm0002. You're currently sitting at +129 before I hit the button again for this post. Dear @[email protected], who is a prolific poster too, is the only other to crack +100 for me (for now).
p.s. my votes are tracked by Voyager, after enabling the feature in the User Tagging settings, for those wondering
Hey Cheeseburger. I’m glad you like the content I post =)
🥰🥰🥰
I had that enabled, but then I felt bad because I had one user at like -50. They don’t seem to be a troll, they just have consistently terrible takes (imo) and try to make jokes at the wrong time. I’m not a big down voter, and I started to wonder if I was seeing the negative number and becoming prejudiced against them, so I got rid of it.
I don’t know what the record is now, but I at least don’t have a reminder of previous bad takes next to their name, meaning I stay unbiased as long as I ignore usernames, which I do.
Why don't you just mute people once they're past the -10/-20 mark?
They’re receptive to other viewpoints, so I’ve had pretty successful conversations with them, they just start off with terrible takes. Plus they posted a couple of good memes and spurred some good conversation in the comments sections of those memes because of their perspectives.
When I noticed someone had a few downvotes, I took it as a red flag, but I don’t like to block people who aren’t trolls or awful people.
I see where you're coming from. Seems like we differ on how and what we downvote and in turn we should consider -20 overall in different ways.
