Yes. I think it is a conflict of interest to upvote my own post. Of course I think I contribute to the conversation, but that is not for me to decide.

Everybody’s vote total is defaulted to 1. Nobody upvotes themselves. Removing your vote just makes it less likely people will see your comment.

You downvote the default score in order not to do something you never did?

[-] owatnext@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I remove the upvote, not downvote.

Everyone's posts are upvoted by themselves by default, so by retiring your upvotes from your posts, you are, in practice, removing visibility from your posts, thus handicapping them, rather than giving them a fair shot.

I rely on the Gs who sort by new.
