Comment on Why are people downvoting the MediaBiasFactChecker not?
otp@sh.itjust.works 1 month agoI don’t think it does. People are explaining all kinds of different reasons why they downvote the bot, so there’s no cohesive reason why it gets downvoted.
In fact, a fair number of people don’t even seem to understand what the bot actually does…lol

I think that’s exactly what it does. It doesn’t matter why they don’t like having it around. They don’t like having it around. And that feedback is important.

I down vote it and like it. I just like it as the kast comment. I’m doing my part!

People downvote it as a placement strategy.
People downvote it not because it makes bad comments, but because they don’t realize they could block a bot.
You downvote a comment because you don’t like what that user said, not because you never want to see any of their comment ever again.
Some people downvote it because they know how Lemmy works and want to find MBFCbot at the bottom of a post’s comments. Other people downvote it because they don’t get how Lemmy works and don’t realize they could block it.
…and yet both of them often leave the MBFCbot as the top comment, lol
