I’m trying to use Reddit less. I hate venting about another platform, but I needed to talk about this. If I mention that I have signs of a mental illness even ON the sub for people with said disorder, they downvote the crap out of me and others.
I got made fun of for posting artwork with a gay fictional couple cuddling.
If I dare talk about my writing or something that seems to be “dark” to express myself and how I feel, I get downvoted to hell.
I got downvoted for mentioning that I was trans on a TRANS sub.


Maybe the artwork got downvoted because people thought it wasn’t good, or wasn’t appropriate for the sub
Maybe the comment where you mentioned you’re trans got downvoted if it was seen as not adding to the conversation at hand
