Preface: Love this instance, happy to be here and this isnt a complaint just an observation.
OK so I mod a few communities across several instances, big and small. 3 on this very instance, I have noticed a pattern that posts on this instance tend to get a consistent early downvote count.
This might be my bad observations or the type of posts I see so I’d love to hear if anyone else has noticed the same.
I haven’t noticed it to be honest, but there’s known bad actors, who for example downvote everything about piracy or GenAI. It’s possible to determine accounts who go around and downvote everything via the DB, but I’m too lazy to do that rn :D
That also feels unnecessary unless its bots which is unlikely. Plus whyvon earth would anyone downvote piracy or genAI content on an instance about piracy and genAI
People be salty
