    Once again, @[email protected] is to be found on the list of downvoters. So, it’s not just what I say or do, even when someone else talks about my project, they are there.

    Seriously, what is the problem you have with me?

      I have no idea who you are, so any slight against your person is purely your imagination.

      I was curious, though, so I scrolled a bit on your profile. Out of over four hundred posts you’ve made, I saw I had downvoted three. The only comment of yours that I saw that I voted on, I upvoted.

      I think the other comment about obsessiveness may be right.

      Edit: and to be clear, I downvoted your comment here because it is off-topic in this post.

        Thanks for bringing their instance to my attention. Their behavior is NOT ok, makes me want nothing to do with their project, and I have defederated their instance over it.

          Because OP titled it only “Fediverser” and gave essentially no further info. To borrow from reddit’s FAQ: “Remember that adage about not judging a book by its cover? No one actually follows it. So choose your title carefully — make it useful, provide context, and be descriptive.” I feel that high-quality posts should be elevated, and low-quality posts should be reduced.

            Modified it a bit. Never understood why reddit never allowed people to edit a title.

              It’s so that someone can’t get a post to the front page and change it to something offensive.

              I don’t know if that’s going to be a problem on Lemmy. Maybe in the future, if there are more users.

      I am not catloaf but I have a problem with people literally combing vote logs to call users out in comments. That’s toxic verging on obsessive.

      Absolutely not the way to act as the face of a project. It accomplishes nothing besides making you look incredibly petty and dissuades people from supporting your work.

        No need to comb anything. Instance admins get to see who voted on any item, right in the UI. And it’s been going for months: if I have a comment or post with a single downvoter, 90% of the cases it’s my friend here.

          It’s so weird to keep track of that, and petty on both sides if it has been happening for months like you say.

          I also think you are placing way too high importance on vote counts, and specifically pinging people is not the way to handle your disapproval.
