Since on most fediverse instances you don’t automatically upvote your own comment, do you do it manually? What’s considered “proper etiquette”? Because on Reddit your stuff is self-upvoted automatically, while in YT comment sections comments with 1 like sometimes get called out for liking their own comment. Do we have an established standard here yet, and if not what are your thoughts on it?

    Not usually. There’ve been a couple where the conventional wisdom had people downvoting, because butthurt children, and I self-upvoted as a way to suggest that, “Hey, there’s something of value here if you don’t knee jerk so much.” Seems to have worked, if only marginally.
