I think you may have meant to respond to the other person since this is pretty much what I said

I was supporting your point. I forget that comments are seen as counterargument by default.

But you're right, my comment would have been more useful in reply to the other person.

You raise a great point about comments being seen as a counter by default. And if you try to give a disclaimer in your comment (like saying you agree) you still get downvoted for some reason. I'm very cautious about participating in any serious topics because of this, jokes, one-liners and sharing (unimportant) personal experiences are pretty much the only safe comments.

Come on over to Beehaw, where we don't have downvotes, then!

It forces people to actually take time and effort to disagree with you, rather than just hitting one button, and somewhat unsurprisingly, that deters a lot of "drive-by" negativity.
