Some people down vote popular things because they are popular.
Didn’t downvote this myself, but I can understand why some people would. I have personally blocked numerous users and communities who post variations of the exact same post over and over and over again.
There are only so many times I can read the same bloody thing about Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Israel, and Linux.
I agree. Trump/Musk/Netanyahu are arseholes. Linux is awesome. But I don’t bloody well want to read a variation of the same post every single time I access Lemmy.
I love Summit for Lemmy, it has an option to group repost together so you don’t see too many repeating posts. It’s not perfect but keeps me from seeing the same post too many times.

There are also those with fat fingers, but that’s probably only one or two people
There are also quite a few “this isn’t helping, we need to focus seriously on…” people
An applicable grain of wisdom for anyone leaning to the first camp in this list:
“Burying your head in the sand just makes it easier to kick you in the ass”
