seeing people downvote (? if that's the correct term) hurts that much more. this kind of app that's meant to help people shouldn't have that awful feature :/

      I understand why they have the feature (algorithm, helpful posts go up, random go down) but i dont think most people use it for that

          @starlightnovas honestly i don't think you did anything, i've seen so many that i'm guessing they're trolls at this point. i know that doesn't make it feel any better, though :( but most people here are still here for community!! and you're always welcome to chat with me if you want someone to talk to :)
