You’re welcome!

I was genuinely surprised to see the downvotes, especially when I can see the effort you’re putting into trying to promote activity and discussions here.

I’m not - community behavior is something I think very carefully about and these kinds of potentially-toxic behaviors (passive-aggressive downvotes, no attempt to follow Rules #2 and #3) are exactly why I didn’t enjoy /r/scifi.

I’m not

I think you might have misunderstood my comment - I didn’t think you were the one doing the downvoting, I was expressing my surprise that others were downvoting you. Sorry if that wasn’t clear!

Oh! Yes, that makes sense. So I’m the one who misunderstood 🤦🏻

Sorry, @inkican 😔

See, this (along with perpetual anxiety over whether I’ve worded something the best way) is why I normally just lurk online… but I want to see this group, and Kbin/Lemmy more generally, succeed… so I’m trying to participate more!

For what it’s worth from this internet stranger, I think you’re doing a great job of contributing! Misunderstandings are inevitable and it’s the calm conversation that followed and lack of subsequent flame war that hopefully is helping this differentiate from /r/scifi lol
