At least on Reddit there was some leveling of downvotes built into the algorithm. This site is making it seem like any slight disagreement leads to downvotes thus encouraging more echo chambers. Maybe it's the communities I'm commenting on?

I dunno, I’m just used to seeing upvotes when I’m supporting the thread I’m commenting in and downvotes when I am not.

The upvote system is stupid
