| Dec 5, 2023 at 1:57 | comment | added | Levente | @Raffles I feel, on Aviation SE, an upvote merely means: "I believe this person got it right". Whereas here on AU, there may be an additional notion that an upvote on an answer is like a testimony, expressing: "yeah, the info in this answer (e.g. commands, procedures) works, and can be reliably used in an instance of troubleshooting, with the expectation that it will work correctly". Or: "This helped me too". However, I am not in the position to verify each good- and well-researched-looking answer. So in order to not leave behind an unverified "testimony", I held back from upvoting. | |

I figure that the users of AU are looking for very specific answers to highly individual problems, whereas aviation attracts a lot of general interest. Therefore Ask Ubuntu users are less likely to upvote something of general interest. Posting answers and getting no upvotes, or worse, downvotes is not very encouraging. The downvote warriors are pretty active too. | |

We human individuals in today's world, I indeed observe, are starving for caring, nurturing attention. Thank you for representing and nurturing humanity. | |
