What's with the downvotes? - eviltoast

I can fully understand when me or someone else gets downvotes for saying something controversial or silly (yeah, it happens, I admit), but why would anyone come here and spend time downvoting things that perfectly align with the political climate here?

Are we that popular that we are being displayed in other instances so often? Do we have lurkers who only pretend to be communists? And in that case - Jesus, I thought that I am wasting my time sometimes… 😆

The fact that the first thing I received was a downvote is a comedy gold.

    There’s a Lemmy bug that pushes 3yo posts from here all the way to the top of the “all” queue, and they get absolutely obliterated by downvotes from regular Lemmy users.

    No no comrade, they don’t obliterate them. We obliterate them; we’re so powerful even our 3 year old posts are still making them seethe and getting traction.
