going back to reddit and seeing the upvote/comment counts is always a trip. like I've gotten so used to getting excited about 40 upvotes and 20 comments that it's jarring. the signal to noise ratio on reddit is so bad.

In smaller communities on Reddit, it’s the same way. Front page subs are just so unbelievably huge that any actual comments just feel drowned out, so I rarely comment there.

yeah, it's nice getting to know people here and developing real connections with the people who post most often. the small communities on reddit seem dead lately.

I guess it depends on the size of the community (Reddit exodus probably also made some impact), although I am impressed at how big Lemmygrad has grown even since I joined.

So what you're saying is that in order to keep the value of our upvotes high we should stop up voting you? Artificial scarcity wins again.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
