Some will cheer, some will be mildly disappointed. But I'm out, I think.

The Piefed vote limit fundamentally screws my own user experience into a deeply frustrating one. Many of my upvotes are towards comments and replies on my own posts, so being unable to interact with a large number of my notifications, beyond some comment like "Thank you!" that becomes asinine after the 15th time or so in a day, makes my experience incredibly shitty.
If you're asking "Why not migrate your account but keep the comms on Piefed.social?", then the issue remains, it's just less obvious on my end. The vote limiting in Piefed.social affects non-Piefed.social users; the instance would simply not count a, for example, Piefed.world PugJesus vote after the daily limit was hit. I could split my votes between multiple accounts, but I'm not sanguine that that won't be coded against in a future update; and it also, again, makes my user experience shittier.
... as well as doubts as to how this will effect the long-term trajectory of Piefed.social, including its longevity, and a desire to not have comms I run on a self-sabotaging instance that will damage both the comms' health and potentially end with me having to migrate from a Kbin-esque collapse anyway at a later date.
Hm. Are you sure you'd be drastically effected by this change? I just counted the comments made on all the posts you made 9 days ago (all made in the same day) as 73 (though I'm unsure what the average you would receive in a day is). Assuming you upvote every single one of those comments, that still leaves you 167 votes left over in that day for posts and comments in threads not made by you.
Do you have a rough idea of how many upvotes you may leave a day/session on lemmy?
No clue, but I hit the limit before the vote limit was even announced. I went to the Matrix channel, confused as hell, thinking it was a bug, and got told it was intentional.
In any case, 73 comments is without particularly discussion-heavy posts. On the 30th of June, for example, I had 93 comments in my posts on HistoryMemes alone, not including any of my other comms - or engagement on posts on the comm that aren't mine, or my engagement on comms I don't moderate.
