View submission: Votes and Comments Incongruous
I've noticed some subreddits are stingier with upvotes than others. In some subs people upvote everything to the moon; in others, there will be hundreds of comments but nobody's upvoting or downvoting anything. I can't explain it beyond just the culture of each sub being different.
Is that maybe part of what you're seeing?

I feel like subreddits are worse than stingy. There are subreddits where I feel like many of the people posting downvote other people who post around the time they do so that theirs has a higher chance of being picked up.
I’ve had posts in other accounts with -1 or 0 votes but like 30 constructive comments.

That shit can be infuriating. Like, I just helped you, I gave you information you didn’t have and now your life is slightly better. You even said thanks..no upvote? What the fuck.
I mean, it all means less than nothing. I realize that. But I’ll upvote anyone that even replies to me if it isn’t stupid or inflammatory. I helped you and you can’t upvote?
