News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

That seems like an oddly precise number.
I definitely upvote more than I downvote. It shouldn’t be surprising that in a conversation about getting banned for downvoting that the discussion would focus more on the downvotes.
Over there on Lemmy.World, what happens when you hover your mouse over another user's name? Does a popup card of info appear after a second or two?
In any case, that's what appears using PieFed software, which is where the 46% number is listed. And yeah-- for sure it's a precise number, exactly calculated from your upvote / downvote ratio.
I can also see such info (and more) if I go ahead and click on another user's ID, but the popup box is certainly handy for not needing to do that.
Interesting - I pretty much exclusively browse Lemmy on mobile with a third party app. That number is surprising though…🤔
Okay, but can you see that number if you click on your own user page?
At this point I'm thinking "attitude" isn't actually generated by Lemmy, which would explain why you can't see it.
As for how it's calculated, the PieFed author (Rimu) says this:
This is all I see. If I click into Upvoted and Downvoted it just lists the posts and comments I’ve up/downvoted. It doesn’t show counts.
Okay, that settles that.
So from your end, you might possibly consider that I'm just making the whole "attitude" thing up!
That's a Piefed-exclusive feature. So only Piefed users can see it.
Your observation is correct, though. You can use Lemvotes to look up any user here and you'll see their upvote & downvote history. The user you're replying to has downvoted quite a lot of posts and comments. Still mostly upvotes, but not an insignificant amount of downvotes.
Thanks! I recall trying that once, it not seeming to work, and then me forgetting all about it. Nice tool, though.
