Alright, every comment >12 hours old here has one single down vote. Looks like somebody downvoted everyone for giggles. Who was it? ๐Ÿ‘€

As for the cat, it is in purrfect shape indeed. ๐Ÿ˜บ

After refreshing my feed yesterday, I noticed that someone had given cons to all the new posts that were on top. In addition, under the new comments in these posts, someone also put downvotes. Perhaps it was a person who doesn't like cats...

I don't know much about him. Does he have a negative attitude towards cats?

No but tldr he was a poster on Reddit that was famous for being everywhere and constantly on the front page. Turned out he was using vote manipulation to guarantee he would make it to the top. He realized the first few votes mattered most for post turnout because a single up vote pushes a new post to the top above every other 1 score post. He used several accounts to upvote his own posts and down vote others to increase his own discoverability
