    I didn’t make this up, you wrote:

    I pointed out that you don’t practice what you preach.

    And I’m **still **baffled as to how you’ve come to that conclusion. The only thing you’ve shared is that ~20% of my votes are downvotes? Which somehow you’ve decided goes against this simple thought:

    But the downside is that people then upvote or downvote based on their preferences, not the community’s.

    So, what on Earth are you talking about?

    Edit: Or, you could do the normal adult thing and just say “oh, my bad, I got confused as to whom I was responding” or “my mistake, I misread what you wrote and kind of dug in there” etc. Honestly, admitting you’ve made a mistake isn’t a sign of weakness or stupidity, it’s a sign of being a functional adult. (A valuable lesson to learn well.)

      You are saying down voting is bad, yet you down vote more than me. You are a hypocrite, but I was trying to avoid saying it directly since people get butthurt about that kind of thing.

      That is what I said, but apparently you can’t read and thought me pointing out your hypocrisy meant my view changed.

      Go upvote more stuff and improve the fediverse.
