I swear every thread has the same 100 people in it so my upvote counter is pretty high for most people. Wondering what it’s at for other people on Lemmy. You tell me my vote count and I’ll tell you what I have for you :)

TIL that’s a thing. It wasn’t even turned on for me

[–] NotSteve_ 33 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah! It’s fun but definitely exposes that the average comment section is mostly made up of the same people.

I have you at +2

First time I read about that feature. It seems it starts counting only after you enable it, unfortunately.

[–] NotSteve_ 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Aw yeah, that makes sense. I have you at +1 before this comment

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I just enabled it after reading this!

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Zero because the setting is off.

[–] NotSteve_ 5 points 2 weeks ago

Aw. I have you at +33 though!

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Where do you enable this setting?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Interesting such a feature exists in voyager. If I hadn't seen this post I never would've found it even if I used voyager for years.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you for pointing it out!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Use voyager -> Settings-> user tags -> track votes

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you. I should update my apps more often.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I’m new here. What am I looking for?

Edit: Found it. Everyone is at 0 because it wasn’t enabled. That’s a fun feature

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

If you use voyager (app to access lemmy) then you can go to settings -> user tags -> track votes and turn it on. It will then show a running counter next to people's names for the total number of upvotes/ downvotes you've given someone.

Welcome to lemmy!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

Ooh, that is neat! I've been using Lemmy for months and didn't know this was a thing. You're my first tracked upvote now :)

Didn't realise this was a feature. Just enabled it.

You are at +1 now.

Edit: +4 after reading the comments. I'm a prolific upvoter.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Too bad it's not retroactive, but it seems cool to at least start

[+1]

[–] NotSteve_ 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Not too shabby!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I have you at +1 now, and added a "Probably Steve" tag for good measure

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago

I have the feature enabled, but I don't have any vote history for you.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Well +1 now. Dang that's a cool feature

Do you mean upvotes on this post? I'm old and confused

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a feature of the Voyager app, a type of user "tags" that adds the number of times you've upvoted someone next to their username, like so

0, because I hadn't enabled the option before now.

And just like that you're +1

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh, hey, it's the prolific Norwegian tagger at +23. Hi!

+2 with no tags. Sunshine probably has the highest at 300ish since they've pretty much posted most of the content on c/Canada recently.

I'm pretty glad AEHarding ended picking up my feature request on GitHub for this since there was pretty much zero takers(had a rather odd convo with the Sync dev) when I brought it up during the early Lemmy days.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

It is now +1 because I didn't know there was a feature for something like this.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Just enabled that feature, so everyone is at 0

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] NotSteve_ 4 points 2 weeks ago

Ayy nice. You’re at +26 for me lol
