    Which posts and comments do you either up- or downvote? Which are you not voting on?

    Upvote:

    • insightful post or comment I agree with
    • clever jokes or references
    • being open-minded
    • giving helpful advice
    • any post or comment that made me laugh or simile, whether or not it is "good"

    • good gut feeling about someones intention

    No-vote:

    • insightful post or comment I disagree with
    • overused jokes
    • useful bots

    • someone angry venting their frustration(s)
    • comments that already exist multiple times in a thread

    Downvote:

    • deliberately looking for a "fight" or rage baiting
    • complete disregard to reality
    • false and/or potentially dangerous information
    • spamming bots and/or trolls
    • inciting violence, no matter against whom (people seem to forget this is a straight up crime, sometimes a felony)

    • propaganda and political or religious extremism
    • know all, better than everyone attitude
    • highly questionable anime content (especially sexualizing characters that look like children)
    • obvious, malicious manipulation
    • AI generated content ( mentioned first by [email protected] )

    I am really interested in your vote behavior and may also update my list as more things come to mind. These will be listed under a horizontal line.

    I'm pretty similar. I'm probably more generous with upvotes. I'll also downvote:

    • any link without a description
    • YouTube links
    • Twitter reposts (that's usually on reddit, though)

    I have to force myself not to downvote anything with anime. I have a visceral dislike for anime, probably a result of the shitty afternoon TV cartoon lineup in the 70s.

    I block a LOT of accounts. Anything that looks like ragebait or just arguing in bad faith.

        Upvote: any insightful contribution even if I don’t agree with it.

        Downvote: Remove this. Don’t show it to others. Was not worth my time to read this content because it contains false information, trolling, etc.

        I’d like to encourage others not to use down votes for simple disagreement. Lemmy needs participation from thinking people.

            • Everything I see, even if I don't agree with it or even understand it. Lemmy is small, and upvotes can help someone feel good.

            Downvote:

            • Anything meant to harm others. Malicious misinformation, hurtful comments, bigotry, etc.

              Downvoting anime is always morally correct.

                  It all depends on the person:

                  Posts or comments from women: downvote about every second one, randomly.

                  Posts or comments from black people: downvote every single one, thoroughly, with extra pressure on the button.

                  Posts or comments from stupid people: sometimes downvote, sometimes upvote, according to my mood swings. Sometimes create an additional lemmy account in order to have a second downvote.

                    I tend to upvote any display of anyone's creative pursuit if I happen to scroll by it. Even if it's not something I'm into. The marker-on-photo-paper guy whose name escapes me, people's photographs in any of the photography related communities, any of the ink doodles, hand made stuff, or comics posted by their original creators.

                    We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. The average piece of junk is more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.

                      I see the point you are making, or I am interpreting too much into it, but I don't think discussion about subjective, highly variable day-to-day things is useless. Sure, every human is influenced by a lot of factors, but in my opinion there is still something to learn from this. I know I did in less than an hour already.

                      I am an idiot.

                        I have a up-vote down-vote pattern for when the scores are low. If I disagree with a child comment, I will down-vote the comment and up-vote the parent comment.

                        Since every comment automatically gets one up-vote, a parent score of 2, and a child score of 0 shows that the parent comment didn't down-vote the reply comment and they should look elsewhere for who to be mad at.

                          I forgot to upvote most of the time. but when i do, it's usually something that made me chuckle or laugh.

                          Downvote, everything that has AI nonsense, musk, trump, big tech and the lot of them.

                            I rarely ever downvote. Everybody’s opinion is valid. Downvoting is petty.

                                I can't down vote or see them in my instance which is really nice imo. But usually if I like it, I upvote it. Relatable, funny interesting.

                                      I typically upvote anything I want to see more of. I down vote posts that I really don't want to see or really wrong info. And no vote if I'm not sure of something or don't care. Most of the time it's no vote.

                                      In smaller communities it helps a tiny bit as an votes are what people see.

                                        I don't downvote, I dislike this feature. In theory I upvote when it's funny or interesting, but I don't often think to do it. I try to upvote posts in little communities to say "hey someone saw your post and enjoyed it, please continue to share things!" even if I don't comment.
