I have also experienced down votes in the past and I tell you that the experience was emotional draining. I didn't even know what I did until I started asking questions and I heard that a whale voting my post was in an issue with another whale, so once he upvote me and others, his enemy whale 🐋 will follow suit with a down vote.. lolz

A lot of people here are being downvoted unjustifiably and it's a concern. I mean, is there not a room for warning and adjustments prior to downvote?
It hurts more when you are downvoted without even a word. Like u don't even know what u did and boom downvote. So staying away from what caused you the down vote became a hassle because apparently, you are in the dark.
As long as I understand that dv is part of the hive ecosystem, I believe people should be told the reason for their dv at least to desist from it. DV can be discouraging, maybe that's why the account u mentioned here stopped posting for now
