Recently, on the francophone lemmy, there was some discussion on downvote, as some posts (on francophone instance, or francophone communities) gets a lot of downvote without a reason.

Yesterday, I had post going up to -5 before going back to 1. It was a belgian newspaper article about new IA regulation in Europe in the francophone news community of LW. I am glad that so many people are interested in European affair and want to votes. But considering that it's not the kind of topic leading the heated discussion I doubt these downvotes were even about the topic but either some "random downvotes" or "people who haven't set their language filter properly"

Just curious if some of you experienced similar issues when posting in German/Spanish/Korean/Russian/whatever
