Who are these people who upvote posts but never comments, top comment right now has 21 score and the post has 212, thats such an abusrd ratio, is it just a hexbear thing that this is surprising to me?
-
I think it kind of is. Hexbear folks love to post and engage more directly with each other based on what I've seen while a lot of people (myself for included) clearly take a much more passive approach and just up vote and move on. My excuse is generally I usually only come on here when bored and have nothing else to fill my time with and I find commenting to be personally kind of exhausting now days.
-
I think downvotes produce participation anxiety and Hexbear not only doesn't have them but also promotes a not-giving-a-fuck mentality to posting.
-
Last time I saw any research about it down votes make people angry with eacother and fight. Which is good for Engagement if you want ad money. Bad for the culture though

Thats fair enough, thanks for your perspective!
-
turns out not having downvotes is good for our culture
