I’ve occasionally noticed ordinary comments with zero upvotes to them. Yet, our own comments are upvoted automatically whenever we make them. So for comments to have zero upvotes, either something I don’t know about is happening, or there are people who downvote their own contributions.

I can’t help but wonder, why? It seems like extra effort without a clear reason.

    I have noticed that I sometimes accudentaly swipe to vote on a comment when trying to scroll, the most common is to remove the upvote.

    This happens on Voyager
