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.
What gives?
So far it’s working quite well, however for a micro-sized instance it’s no surprise. Worst case scenario I can do the same thing as the admins of lemmy.world did: create a dedicated scheduling pod using the same docker image as the normal ones, but exclude it from the Service’s target, so it won’t receive any incoming traffic.
The rest of the pods can then be dedicated to serve traffic with their scheduling functionality disabled.

Interesting. I suspected the same would happen to my post if I posted this question there.
