Sorry to hear man! It can be a bit tough because it’s a free and open platform, so anyone can decide to downvote for any reason. I do wish they would say why they are downvoting so that the issue can be addressed.
My only guess can be some of the whales tend to try to even out the rewards on posts, and they probably reacting to the automatic voting up of your posts. I have no issue with it, and think we should do more to support independent journalists such as yourself!
It’s good that you’re engaging the community, which shows your paying attention to the Hive community, not just dropping content and dipping out.
I do hope that these whales see this, and comment, because that’s the only way we are going to find a way for this to work for everyone, not just people that certain whales agree with.
I try to spare upvotes for you and other journalists when I can, tho I am only a dolphin, but I also run a small community so I don’t always have the votes to spare. But I’ll upvote anything of yours I see downvoted.
