Jet has an automated removal bot that will nuke someone for a single down vote. Their opinion is worthless because their moderation is dog shit.

Your question made my brain hurt because I had no idea how you think my opinion did a 180 because I pointed out that you don't practice what you preach.

I'm still so curious about how you decided that this simple thought:

But the downside is that people then upvote or downvote based on their preferences, not the community’s.

somehow secretly also means “don’t ever downvote” ?

I can't explain something you made up.

My opinion is that people should vote however they want becsuse it does not hurt the fediverse, as long as each person votes once. That includes downvoting.

I didn't make this up, you wrote:

I pointed out that you don’t practice what you preach.

And I'm **still **baffled as to how you've come to that conclusion. The only thing you've shared is that ~20% of my votes are downvotes? Which somehow you've decided goes against this simple thought:

But the downside is that people then upvote or downvote based on their preferences, not the community’s.

So, what on Earth are you talking about?

Edit: Or, you could do the normal adult thing and just say "oh, my bad, I got confused as to whom I was responding" or "my mistake, I misread what you wrote and kind of dug in there" etc. Honestly, admitting you've made a mistake isn't a sign of weakness or stupidity, it's a sign of being a functional adult. (A valuable lesson to learn well.)

You are saying down voting is bad, yet you down vote more than me. You are a hypocrite, but I was trying to avoid saying it directly since people get butthurt about that kind of thing.

That is what I said, but apparently you can't read and thought me pointing out your hypocrisy meant my view changed.

Go upvote more stuff and improve the fediverse.

Not actually true, there is nuance there: https://hackertalks.com/post/13655318

But hey, everybody makes mistakes including me, would you like to participate in those communities? If I unban you would you positively engage?

That's uhhhh, an interesting conclusion.

How do you mean? Have you decided that this simple thought:
