Why does it seem that on larger platforms there are bots that downvote comments?
You can tell it’s bots because all the downvotes happen at the same time. I can guess for astroturfing purposes one would want to upvote their targeted comments and downvote all others but on lemmy?
I don’t care about the downvotes. I intentionally view ALL posts in the feed, I don’t hide anything just because of low score. The lowest score might be the best!
Especially in certain communities.
