    The users who downvoted you were iconoclast@feddit.uk and FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world. I’m sure it would make their respective day(s) if you asked them.

    I’ve given up trying to make heads or tails of downvoters’ behavior. I am convinced that some people here either think there is some “algorithm” that will magically stop showing them some type of content if they downvote it (I can’t imagine I’ve pissed in that many people’s cornflakes, so that’s my theory anyhow) and others who don’t quite understand that there’s no such thing here as reddit style karma.

    I dunno. It is what it is. I think fewer people realize than they should that votes are publicly accessible on Lemmy, though.

    (Don’t look at me. I haven’t downvoted anyone in four months.)

      Yeah, there’s enough content on Lemmy to see everything in a half hour and then get on with the day. I like that.

      The algorithm is set to “here’s everything except what you blocked.”
