also, a tip: lemmy actually lets you remove the upvote from your own stuff. it counts, unlike reddit, where your own vote doesn’t count, just no votes makes it display 1
The problem is that the default configuration has you automatically liking your own stuff, so setting it to not do so makes it look like you were downvoted
doesn’t it show the vote counts individually? maybe reddit brains subconsciously interpret seeing 0 in the context of voting being “this guy got downvoted”

I don’t know, I use boost and hardly ever use a PC or web interface for Lemmy, and I haven’t noticed
In my UI (boost default except for fonts and colours) all I see is total votes for comments, and I can click to see up/down counts on posts
