I just realised I hit upvote on just about every single post and most comments kind of instinctively, meanwhile think like 5 mins before downvoting.

What are your upvote habits??

    Personally, I kind of never intuitively thought up and down analogous to “good” or “bad”, rather I’ve always just thought of them as signal boosting and signal… uh, diminishing?

    I.e I upvote stuff I think more people should see, and downvote things I think nobody should see. Neither of which directly correlate with good or bad or my level of agreement.

      Came here to say this. Upvote something (usually posts - I don’t worry about comments) I think should be more visible to people, and only downvote if it’s something I feel shouldn’t get more oxygen.
