I think it's bots or trolls because what I've seen downvoted has been on topic, friendly conversations and had been just posted. There would be no reason to downvote a lot of the comments downvoted.
I think it's bots because of just how quickly a post gets nuked. Like, there's no way that many people even read the post and suddenly you've got 50 downvotes. There's just no way that many people read what I said, processed it, and decided it was so terrible it needed to be downvoted.
One of the reasons I'm happy to be back on lotide, I don't even see the votes for anything but posts.
