At least on Reddit there was some leveling of downvotes built into the algorithm. This site is making it seem like any slight disagreement leads to downvotes thus encouraging more echo chambers. Maybe it’s the communities I’m commenting on?

    Thanks. I could be wrong, but I think on certain apps (like connect) with enough downvotes comments become hidden. I think my issue is that there isn’t enough of a user base to even out the benign downvotes, and as a consequence any pushback on anyithing gets buried instasntly
