    Practically I believe up\downvotes are public, so you can’t. Otherwise you look like you’re just a troll if you’re downvoting your own comment.

      Your own comments are upvoted automatically, so every new comment starts with 1 point. You can remove your own upvote from your comment, so that it starts at 0 instead.

        Yeah, but people can see if you downvote your own comment, right?

            Ok. I’m not sure what that raw data looks like, how easy it is to see the specifics.
