I've experienced being downvoted on one of my posts before. And I wasn't fully aware of the reasons why many users voted on my posts at that time, but it sure did make me and my work appreciated. Then I later realized that one of the few persons I look up to on the platform recommended my post. For that, I am very thankful.

With regards to the downvote I received, I could've just accepted it more if some people did not just vote on my post. I'd rather want to see more people appreciating my posts compared to see downvotes on my posts.
