regarding when we talked about downvotes, I suggested you look at Peter Gric - I scrolled back on his posts, and here is one you can look at: @gric/generative-concept-art-prompt-02g - 111 Upvotes, many of them 100%, and 4 downvotes that wiped it all down to 0.00
You can check other posts of his from around that time, and they are similar. Without downvotes, he used to make 40 Hives or better on most of his posts.
