The other day, it was at 96%. This morning, it was at 88%. Now, a few hours later, it’s at 80%. What’s going on?

I’ve started a few communities and like it here. I try to be nice and upbeat. My posts have been received well, not seeing downvotes…

Edit: I’m marking this solved. I understand it now. Thank you all for being so helpful!

Edit Edit: After days of upvoting, I’m back at 96%. I juked the stats!

    It specifically describes downvoting as being part of a bad attitude. Not sure I’m in agreement with that at all. So, to be perceived as having a great attitude, I’m supposed to love everything here 100%

    Not quite. There is more on the fediverse than you could possibly vote on, up or down. Which means that the stuff you are voting on is the stuff you have curated in to your feeds, and decided needs interaction. And it’s reasonable to say that if most of the stuff you are choosing to interact with is stuff that makes you hate vote it, then you’re probably not carrying a positive attitude

    Edit - And for what it’s worth, you have a 100% attitude on my instance, because we have downvotes disabled! :)

      I’ve given like a handful of downvotes. Definitely not most stuff. I’ve given hundreds of upvotes. I’ll check out the blahaj. Thank you.
