    On Reddit I feel like people would just look for heavily downvoted comments to tag in and add their two cents, which could easily mean your inbox exploding, so I could understand deleting just to stop the flood, but generally I don’t worry too much about deleting old comments just because people didn’t agree with me.

      On reddit the only thing that matters is the first few votes. The content of your comment doesn’t matter, people will pile on the upvotes or downvotes because agreeing with the group gives you a dopamine rush

      At this point I think I would seriously start to worry about myself if everyone on Reddit agreed with me:-P.
