It seems like in almost every thread, there are at least one or two cranky individuals that just downvote for the hell of it.
Downvotes on lemmy are pure spam. Good instances block them.
I regularly down vote things. I up vote a lot more than that, though. I'm sure the ratio is at least 3:1 or higher for up to down.
Are my down votes spam?
Yes in my opinion which is why theyβre turned off on the instance I use.
