Is anyone else upvoting every comment and thread or is it just me?

Whereas I might’ve been less generous with upvotes on Reddit, I think it’s important in these early formative stages to let others know that I appreciate their contributions. I hope it encourages growth and activity!

Absolutely, I've done more posting/commenting/upvoting in the last days than I've done on reddit in the last year.

isnt it great to know you are making a positive difference?!

RoosterBoy@lemm.ee · 4 pts · 3y

Yeah, feels less like a drop in the bucket.

Yeah me too. It’s the only way we can make this work.

right now I am using the upvote as an "I see you, friend". its more important to me that we have interaction of any type while we try and grow this thing.

I am using the upvote as an "I see you, friend".

I agree. It’s more important now than ever!

pancake@lemmy.ml · 19 pts · 3y

I've been upvoting every comment and thread since I joined lol. Now for the first time it's actually becoming harder to keep track of them!

crmsnbleyd@sopuli.xyz · 17 pts · 3y

Yep I really feel like it makes a difference

Wistful@discuss.tchncs.de · 17 pts · 3y

I'm definitely more generous with my upvotes on here.

It's an interesting phenomenon. For me it really feels like in a smaller community, upvotes and comments and contributions matter a lot more

DidacticDumbass@lemmy.one · 9 pts · 3y

I basically only upvote when I like something but do not want to comment.

ImOnADiet@lemmygrad.ml · 9 pts · 3y

Yes, I also use it to be able to more easily find new comments on threads

21trillionsats@infosec.pub · 7 pts · 3y

Same haha. Let’s get this fucking party started!

PeefJerky@lemmy.ml · 6 pts · 3y

Yes, I try to comment on posts because it’ll increase the engagement of the site and new comers wouldn’t feel that it’s empty.

lemmy_steve@lemmy.ml · 6 pts · 3y

I'm upvoting everything at the moment. I want my fellow users to feel like they matter and are well received, hopefully something that will spur them on to contribute more.

100%

archchan@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 3y

Yes... I've been doing that across other parts of the Fediverse like Mastodon and Pixelfed. And now Lemmy.
