You say that as someone with a very well paid full time job. I doubt it’s possible to live off 18 dollar posts every few days. His life is these sites from what I see he is a very active member of discord, he runs radio shows, interviews people ( thars how I interacted with him), researches the sites and posts. You have never been down voted either I don’t think.

I don’t think you understand the psychological affect when someone works really hard on a post, gets good rewards and has them snatched away st the last minute just because someone who has more stake than most on the site, personally doesn’t like them. We will never agree on this I don’t think and I will never engage with anyone who downvotes others and takes away their livelihoods. To me it is morally repulsive. Each to their own of course I can’t stop someone from doing it but I will not engage with anyone who does it.
