I can’t say I never downvote anyone but I get into these comment chains from time to time where really no matter what I post whoever I’m talking to downvotes every response but I generally shy away from downvoting even things I dislike. I don’t want to fall into an echo chamber where all I see are only the things I agree with.

    Nope!

    I don’t even care about the accidental ones that happen from scrolling while tired.

    Worst that happens is the hot feed gets negligibly shifted until the next person comes along.

        Alas, it isn’t me.

        However, I picked it partly because the guy looks enough like me to be a close relative, and my beard is very similar :)

      Yeah, I try to give everyone uppies unless they’re being a bigger jerk than me. The accidental downvotes, they happen but like I usually catch them
