Well, I have ever only posted two in the weekend community and my second one was totally ignored; they commented that it would have been upvoted if I hadn't used reward.app.
There was some sort of disagreement in the background that they ride out on the users unintentionally.
We are left in the dark sometimes, I still haven't figured out how to set up auto-votes because I can't seem to log in and on discord nobody replied to my question.
With regards to OCD and whales:
You say you're replying to comments, that's great, but the bottom line is engagement, they don't just look at your content they also look if you are active and appreciating others, which means voting but also reading and commenting.
I believe that if you don't you will fall off their radar eventually.
This is a social network, not just a platform to promote our stuff. Well, that's my understanding, I've only been here a year and a half, but I have to be quite honest:
If people aren't interested in me than the same goes the other way, there is only so much time I have in a day; for me that goes in the real world too. ;)
Hope, you have a bit of sunshine where you are as here's it's pretty bl.. damn grey! 😠😄
I never set auto upvotes because handy as they are, they're by default unfair.
I even did the above to people who never bothered to engage with my stuff. 5 years here, there might be a chance I might have thought about this too you know... :)
If that's what you get from what I have shared here I rest my case.
Today it's surprisingly grey and humid for our Mediterranean standards so feel less envy but it is still warm enough to keep swimming so... you can feel envious again :)
Have a nice day.
Trust me, I DO!! I wish I was there RIGHT NOW.. 😂
Of course you would have looked into all of that, you are here a LOT longer than I have, I meant no offence!!
I felt the same with my music videos and in the end I stopped as it was too much work for not much interest.
However, I might start again at some point..
Enjoy your swim!
