Some will cheer, some will be mildly disappointed. But I’m out, I think.

    Sorry about my original reply on this one, mate. It sucked.

    The cap is 240 votes. I almost hit the cap just upvoting most of the comments here yesterday. If I participated in any real discussions outside of my own comms, I would almost certainly hit the daily cap on that given day.

    Damn, I certainly can’t imagine voting 240x in a single day. There might remotely be that number of opportunities in my subscribed stream, but that would be like me forming an opinion upon every-goldurn thing that I possibly saw in that day. And beyond, really?

    I mean, sure I suspect I’m like you and others, giving a friendly updoot upon loads of stuff that I was only neutral upon, but it was for the ‘good’ of the FV, but… 240x per day, y’all?

      There are 303 comments in this post alone. If I have an opinion on 2/3s of them, I’m almost at the cap.

      ~300 comment posts are not the norm on the Fediverse, but I see a fair number of ~80 comment posts. If I run across two or three of them, suddenly I would have very few other opportunities to upvote.

      Considering, on top of that, I post quite a bit and get a fair number of comments on each (I had ~90 comment replies to my posts on a pretty normal day’s output on HistoryMemes alone), it doesn’t take much browsing to hit 240 votes.

        Alright, you’re right.
        I’d forgotten about the post / comment type of vote.
        Yes, of course you’re right.
        (altho that’s still a lot voting, mate!!)

        I wonder… is there a technical difference upon such votes across ActivityPub/Fediverse?

          Sure, but it’s maybe two hours of browsing. I don’t browse for two hours every day, but when I do, I would like to not be frustrated by the experience.
