Hello, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is anyone else being massively downvoted on every comment? I noticed this started happening after the DDOS attacks on lemmy.world. If you check my profile, you'll see what I'm talking about. Almost as soon as I post a comment it's at -10, etc.

Have I pissed off someone, or is it a possible bot attack? I try to keep most of my comments cordial, which is why this is confusing me. Thanks.

Yeah, it's extremely strange. Seems like I'm being targeted by bots. Useless internet points and all, but it's a bit alarming that I've been singled out this way.

It might just be that your username is alphabetically near the start of the most popular instance.
