When you see something has too much up or down votes, does this change your point of view? Also how many people hides votes and etc?
Edit: also is there any eay yo disable scores like 100%😀 in voyager for lemmy?
There are only two things I think about when it comes to vote count:
-
if I make a joke, and it’s not being replied to but being downvoted I want to know if people understood the joke, understood it even was a joke, or if the joke was just not funny.
-
If I see a question being asked that doesn’t appear to be in bad faith being downvoted, and not answered, it pisses me off.
-
I don’t care about the rating on other people’s content. On my own I only care so far as to use it as a guideline for whether I actually was interesting.
On reddit I was a trolling karma whore, but here? Here I’m much more about engaging with people and getting 3 upvotes tells me that I gave the community something meaningful.
No, not really.
