When I upvote a post and it increments by more than 1, I feel good knowing someone else was reading and up-voting it at about the same time.

  Interesting, I attributed it to the data not being completely up-to-date before. And my upvote made the server do some syncing, so more current information is available

    pretty sure it makes your client do the syncing.

    But yes, your client syncs whenever you load the current/next page, so by the time you’re at the bottom there will be a lot of people that have upvoted before you even saw the post.

  IRL, I have to explain that I saw a post on “weird open source reddit alternative”. While here, everyone is (mostly) on the same wave length.

  We are not alone

  As in a validation of your opinion?

    Not really. My opinion may be wrong, but at least I’m not alone with it.

      What you’re describing is what I meant to communicate; but may not have used the correct word for it.
