Anybody else gets more upvotes in here than over THAT site?

I could swear to God I never hit the 10 mark over there. In here as long as it isn't a "^this" I get 10-20, and solidly hit the 50 mark if I comment something truly meaningful.

  • i've said this before but because there's a small community vibe across lemmy and kbin it's much easier to be heard and seen. a lot of people are interested in building communities here which drives engagement way up.

  • Not really but I have lost the care about upvote/downvote. Reddit has shown me - that caring for it, is BS.

    In one moment you have it and the other moment, it’s gone. Because they can take it away, ban you etc.

    I would even prefer it if there was an option to disable the visibility of the upvote/downvote.

  • You don't get buried in other peoples' comments as easily here

    Enjoy your stay and stop worrying about updoots

  • One upvote means at least one person appreciates you. More than that, there are no karmas or anything. You can use the votes to see the most appreciated comments, though.

  • Also your inbox blows up with post/comment replies - and they're not snippy argument-starters either. Feels good man.

    • The snippy comments were the worst, sometimes even completely off of normal comments too like a snippy response to "Oh my God, I love high dives too! They are somewhat more rare these days, but a lake around here still has a few jump platforms. The only other one I've been to was in a swim complex in Germany"

  • There's no karma so what's the point. It's a bit of a dopamine chase anyway.

  • It's actually not that different for me because I knew how to get points even in a huge thread; but I don't want upvotes, I just want to talk and also don't want a question to be downvoted and buried without being answered.

  • I hit a few thousand pointers here and there, but mostly just from making appropriately glib remarks on trending topics.

  • Not even a little bit. I felt like Usher in the early 2000s, just drowning in .... You get the idea.

  • I do but I'm not actively trying to piss anyone off here, so I guess that it's deserved?
