What's the deal with the constant downvotes on the constantly recycled 'My beloved King' / 'For You, My Hero' / 'For my awesome prince' / etc. community? - EDIT: Did I say something wrong? (lemmy.world)

It might be a different user, a different community name, but it's always the same: mostly NSFW pictures (sometimes not even revealing), 0 comments and a ~-6 score. The pictures are mostly about an erotic/romantic encounter between two people. Then the community disappears, resurfaces with a randomly similar name, and the same happens again.

I didn't downvote the one post I've seen (like you and others said, to each their own), but I recognized the style from the subreddit and felt negatively about it. Doesn't have to be sabotage. Could just be people who remember the beforetimes metaphorically recoiling.

To be fair, I would like this to be the real reason, because otherwise it would have puzzled me even more.

(BTW subreddit? :) )

Yes, I remember the subreddit from when I was on reddit, which is to say, the beforetimes.

Oh, I didn't know it had a history there, too. Thanks for the insight!
