Hello, Im kind of new here and trying to get used to Lemmy and I was wondering about if this is true since I am considering donating on this site to support alternative projects but wanted to hear other users before doing so. That being said, what have been your experiences?

      I started that mainly because it felt weird that a comment I wrote, had a blue up, when I didn’t do it.
      Now I consider upvoting something as a way to emphasise the post/comment and not upvoting all my comments makes me show a point when I do upvote something that I wrote.
      It is really just for myself though, as a single upvote doesn’t really matter and others are not really seeing if I am the one that has upvoted it. You can call it a compulsion, I suppose.
