    What Lemmy client do you use?

    I am asking because it caught my attention that you didn’t upvote your own comment.

    Also, funny reference 😂

      The Lemmy web client, same as Reddit, allows you to de-upvote your posts.
      It feels weird to upvote your own post anyway and I don’t do so unless I am asking for help and want it seen more, urgently.

        That is so odd, if you dont think what you are saying is relevant or necessary why say it?

        Your conscientiousness will be lost in a sea of others self importance, at least level the playing field and support yourself.

          if you dont think what you are saying is relevant or necessary why say it?

          If I worried about necessity, I would probably not have a Lemmy account.

          level the playing field

          I’m not playing dependent upon others, just upon my own ideals. I feel like an upvote needs to mean something. In my case, it means, I need more people to see it, for me.
          In most cases, the feeling behind my posts/comments are: If someone sees it, good, have fun.

            Your own upvote on your own comment doesn’t mean anything, because every single comment starts with one upvote by default, not zero. All you’re doing is moving your comments below everyone else’s.
