It’s the internet, so I’m not sure why anyone would be surprised.

I mean, it’s at +4 and 83% upvotes. That’s just 5 upvotes and 1 downvote. There’s always that one guy.

Nah, it’s the internet. Trolls are everywhere, unfortunately.

I’m really sorry to contradict you, but I am NOT nice.

Also probably a misclick
I’ve discovered many posts that I’ve managed to downvote without realising… I go through my profile every so often out of curiousity

Mis swipe too. I’ve swiped a comment past upvote into downvote before.

I don’t know about the community but it could be against the intention of the community.
Someone might disagree with the group nature of the proposed commitment. They might be thinking that social commitment dilutes the commitment to the self that’s the key factor in taking control of an addiction.
It’s foolish to always assume anyone who disagrees with your methods is an asshole looking to cause pain. Sometimes people just don’t think what you’re doing is going to work, and they want it to work, so that’s why they oppose the plan.

I rarely use my dialing wand on the internet, so it takes me a few presses to get the right vote sometimes.

The app I manage gets a very small but steady stream of 1 star reviews that say “great app, thanks!”
