I haven’t really posted a lot to r/selfhosted (or Reddit in general), but whenever I did, there was always someone who voted my post down in less than 30 minutes after it was posted. Maybe because of this (or maybe because they were actually perceived as low quality posts), these posts never received a lot of engagement with their 0 scores.
Today I’ve made a little experiment and posted the same article both here and to r/selfhosted. On Lemmy, it received a few comments and some upvotes, but over at Reddit, it was promptly downvoted to oblivion.
I’ve never really used “New” on Reddit, but I’ve decided to take a look at it, and to my surprise it looked like r/selfhosted’s New page was full of genuinely helpful posts, but I’ve never got to see them as their scores were all zeroes.

Why are you here asking about reddit?
Isn’t this something you could have asked ON reddit? And why does it matter all of a sudden?
You’re probably the person that dredged up every bad thing a person has done in the past…
Found the downvoter.
I absolutely did not down vote this post.
I actually up voted it. I just thought it a silly question.
I don’t know but I can brainstorm:

Well that escalated quickly.
Don’t worry about Phoenix - they’re always blue

I like to go from 0 to 100 in. 3s.
It just seemed like a silly thing to be asking here, reminded me of my ex…
