Half the time I post a comment trying to contribute in some way but get downvotes so I'm scared to post any comments.

Additionally, I never post news articles I see because if the content of the news is bad (eg a news article about something bad google is doing), Ive seen others and myself get downvotes

Counterpoint: By posting things that get downvoted, you still contributed and added to the discussion by exposing people to a viewpoint divergent from the ones they perceive normaly.

Or your contributions are just shit takes. That could be the case too. /s

This, but without a /s

Sometimes you're wrong, sometimes you're talking to assholes.

It's okay, you do already much more than most of us working on Photon

I absolutely understand that regarding political/news communities, I bet your experience is very different in entertainment/hobbies communities

Beehaw.org has disabled the down vote button/doesn't federate down votes. So you could try posting over there, it's pretty great

profile karma doesnt matter here unless you use mbin or piefed, I think even then its only if you have an account there? (not sure about that one) Its not like reddit where more karma boosts posts/comments
