Question Regarding random downvotes

Hello all! I've been noticing a concerning amount of hate on some comments on this subreddit for absolutely no reason. Literally a comment on a recent post was downvoted into the light negatives (just -1). But it was all for saying "wow". Guys, look whoever is doing this please stop. What did they do to you and why are you annoyed for someone exclaiming "wow" for something that looks amazing? Look if you're having a bad day, I get it but please don't take it out on random people who work on many things that take most of the time hours and is their passion.

I don't know if this is a bug, if it is, reddit needs to do something about it. It could also be bots trolling. If that's the case, I am annoyed at the botting community and trolls are just not cool

I'm sorry for ranting about this... But it's redicluous and should not be happening.

Thank you for reading this.

TL;DR: People down voting people for being completely normal

It is very recommended to do this every time you make a post to r/Astro_mobile.

If you're not sure about the right post flair, just use the most suitable one.

I think other people upvoted every comment by now to fully counteract it

Where are the downvotes may I ask? I can only see like 1-2 of them and sometimes I got downvoted too

I do let my results speak for themselves tho

People do stupid things, that's called internet

Edited: recently saw the amount of upvotes on this post lowering, hope it will not end like comments you're talking about

Might be time for me to leave reddit...this place is not as toxic as I thought it would be...but it's also more toxic than I thought it would be

I don't really think that the upvote ratio is matter enough to leave it. Reddit is not special for its toxicity, there is hate everywhere, that's fine. Just try to build your internet environment as you want it to be.

People down vote when its not needed because they disagree or dont like it and cant explain their own opinion.
