Just a reddit ramble&rant
I've been visiting reddit almost everyday for the past couple a months, resin and uvresin subreddits as part of that. And as much as I try to offer advice in those... there are times I'd like to offer "speculation" of what I think might be happening and potential solutions of what I'd do in certain situations. It's usually on threads that get 0 comments/replies.
Thing is, people tend to downvote me on reddit when I do this. Unless I know 100% for absolute certainty what I'm doing, and even then, people are SO insanely critical. It deters me from suggesting insights or possible solutions or what have you. I wonder if other people feel the same.
I mean, you're simply trying to help other people out. Like, either skip over the advice, i.e. not take it, or take some of it, or go ahead and listen to it. If it was marked discussion/debate I could understand and it'd be another story. But why shoot someone in the foot that's taking time out of their day to help you out?
The way I feel is; I didn't HAVE to say anything. I didn't HAVE to offer advice from my own life experience. I could just skip over your reddit thread as if I never laid my eyes on it and let you learn your own life lessons for yourself the hard way. There is zero obligation for me to spend my time, on your post. So stop feeling so entitled.
It's getting to that point where I'm like, why do I bother? It's not just with the resin or uvresin subs, but with others that I've joined. Honestly the resin and uvresin subs are the NICER subs that I'm joined to. I think I'm just a little paranoid because of the others I'm joined to being so rude in this regard.
9 out of 10 times I don't offer advice or say something unless I've already been through that experience myself, have already read up on that topic and have the knowledge, know someone going through it first hand, etc. If I don't know something, I don't talk about it or I'll admit I know little to nothing about it. The other 1 out of 10 is that educated guessing through facts, science, pattern recognition, or again, I just shut the heck up, lol.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not expecting people to be like "Omg thank you so much for yada yada! You're a life saver!" I'm not expecting anything. Not upvotes, but definitely not downvotes. Perhaps I'm just used to regular forums, because that's what I grew up with? You create a post within a topic, get replies, perhaps get replies to your replies within that post, that's it. Old-school but effective.
But anyways... it's almost epoxy and uvresin weather again! \o/ It's been too cold for me to go work in my garage but it's 63 F degrees average this week. Next week it drops back down to about 54 F average. Soon...
I did pick up working with ResinCrete (several months ago) and that's been fun, but can't make as many things that suit my personal tastes with this medium (such as ocean themes & space themes). I should take pictures sometime soon 🙃
Edit: So, I answered someone's question regarding EcoPour + Adding Scents to it and at first it seemed to get ⬆️ but then started to get ⬇️, lol. I'm feeling convinced people on reddit simply refuse to put in research or homework of their own and when you offer them the answers- if they don't like what they hear for whatever reason, they instantly downvote it. (Like a brand they don't like, for example. Or a company they're boycotting or dislike, or a price point they dislike, or a food you never knew they were allergic to, or a person they dislike, or a location they associate bad memories to. It's always some personal opinion that's unrelated to the original post that you could never have known about.)
[It's impossible to make everyone happy.]
Like, they get this question or idea and go directly to reddit seeking that instant gratification. They skip the research step entirely. And they expect to get a grandmaster in the art/topic to reply back to them.
I actually DO my own research, hundreds of hours of it. I read, watch vids and also put it through practical rigorous testing, trial and error with my own materials. I don't just toss nonsense out at people or spread around misinformation. So, you want to tell me my information is wrong and downvote me? That's perfectly fine with me. Go do better, come back and show me and the person asking the question(s) that I'm trying to help, proof of your more refined work and process.
I'm going to be blunt to the reddit people; get off your pedestal and stop asking other people questions if you're going to be a lazy slog and then proceed to be a jerk about it. This goes ten-fold for the people simply reading the comments, downvoting and not commenting a darn thing. If you don't know something or are iffy, leave it.
If you're going to downvote- contribute to the discussion and say WHY you're doing it. Odds are you're wrong, which is why you're NOT saying anything and you know you're wrong. Yeah, I'm calling you all out. Or you're nitpicking grammar/spelling and you know it's unjustified. You hecking trolls.
Remember most people have English as a second language. Which is more than I can say for most native English-only speakers and yet most native English-only speakers think they're above bilingual people for some stupid reason. Such backwards thinking 😖
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. People are upvoting the other people with comments saying "Resin is food safe" when it's anything BUT food safe. See one of my re-blogs below. Reddit culture is mind-numbingly moronic. I'd say I'm sorry, but I'm not sorry.
I'm about done with reddit, for my own sanity 🫠. I'll stick to posting here. At least here I can post it, it'll be here if anyone needs it to be referenced, it can be left alone indefinitely, or be engaged with (good or bad). There's no idiots spamming the non existent downvote button with no logical reason behind it, lol. (Unless the logic is that they don't want other people to know trade secrets and be successful?)
Which is a whole other topic on its own. People with confidence, security & happiness must be destroyed in some people's view?
I might get the occasional troll with the obvious "I'm here to annoy/taunt you" bait but that's just an instant block from me.
[To anyone who thinks this is overly dramatic; this is me setting personal mental boundaries and cutting out what other's may perceive as day to day peer social normalcy, but to me its toxicity.]
