Yes, when I was completely wrong and someone else corrected me in a reply. It’s happened a handful of times. I don’t like to delete comments.
I think in that case I’d probably add an update to the comment. But downvoting yourself feels really honest somehow
Oh, I edit with a strikethrough or correction as needed. But that’s what downvotes are for, reducing the impact of irrelevant content.
Yes. When somebody else has a better take and I want it to be the top comment, I will downvote mine.
No. Any site that upvotes your post automatically is designed that way. It’s not like Facebook where liking your own comment is kind of like jerking yourself off for the lack of better words
In front of other people, too
Perfect words
Nah I only upvote comments and very rarely downvote. If I’m wrong I’ll just reply saying that i was wrong and concede the point.
I see you like playing life on hard mode.
My instance doesn’t allow me to :)
To downvote your own or to downvote anything at all?
I can’t downvote anything at all
Never, because I’m a very stable geenius.
Yup
might as well keep my dumb comments up so I don’t make the same mistakes again
I probably need to start downvoting my posts after finding a solution.
I will now!
No. If anything I’d edit my post to better reflect what I was trying to communicate.
No. If it was something worth for me to downvote, i wouldn’t post it in the first place.
I tested it to see what would happen a few days ago, since there are some platforms where downvoting your comment causes it to become deleted. Nothing happened, so I just went about my way.
No.
EDIT: did it now for the first time
No!
