Don’t let a few downvotes get to you, especially when your up/down ratio is great. Many mobile clients actually make it super easy to accidentally vote while scrolling (I’ve done it a few times) but also people will downvote for literally anything. Maybe they felt the post was too long, or had a misspelling, or they don’t like the format, or they downvote all US politic posts, or so on and so forth. It’s not like karma even means anything on Lemmy.
Yeah, I can’t count how many times I tried to do the “back” swipe gesture and accidentally up / down voted something. There is always going to be some noise.
