I wish people didn't care about downvotes. Always hated the edits on reddit reacting to being downvoted. Would downvote comments I agreed with too if they whined about votes.
Downvoting this guy complaining about complaining about downvoting.
I used to care for about 2 minutes, it's just strange to worry about fake Internet points, but I guess humans like the endorphins or rewards for the brain.

Its not relevant to this particular commenter, but ive made downvote edits when i get to -5 or -10 but have no replies. Especially when i felt like i had a reasonable take. My edit is usually asking for responses from those who disagree, rather than just a "edit: fuck you haters".
