i'm a grumpy man on the internet sometimes but damn i love upvoting shit. I display lemmiquette

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Do these indicate up / down votes that I've given to other people? Or that other people have given to me?

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 1 points 2 days ago

They indicate your votes

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

How you have voted for others

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

Hadn't seen this before.

One of the reasons I enjoy being on an instance that doesn't have the concept of downvotes :)

An upvote is an upvote. A downvote is nothing. I love it :D

Me:
Total post upvotes: 3591
Total post downvotes: 308
Total comment upvotes: 15627
Total comment downvotes: 2862

I seem to upvote posts about 10 times as much as I downvote them, but comments only about 5 times as much. I need to get upvoting more comments.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 7 points 6 days ago

I'm a bit of a cynic, but I do enjoy hearing out all your wild takes and unpopular opinions lol

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

I love this website wth.

[–] anas@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

If I had to guess, I also have more downvotes than upvotes, if you exclude my own content, which I’m pretty sure is counted for some reason.

I don’t really tend to upvote much, I didn’t on Reddit either and I should probably work on that. On the other hand, while I don’t go through profiles to mass downvote, some users are tagged and deserve to be downvoted on sight ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 3 points 6 days ago

I guess I'm not that grumpy.

My ratio is much better than on Reddit. Have I changed or better community? Maybe both

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago

I tend to downvote hateful content and disinformation. So is it "hatorade" to downvote hateful content and straight up lies?

Though more often I reply back to tell people to tell them to try not to be so hateful and then I get downvoted. I cry myself to sleep every night when that happens :P

While you're judging people, someone else may be judging you. If you're motivated by upvotes maybe consider going to reddit?
