Official announcements and happiness!
Why don't we automatically upvote our own posts anymore?
I'm sure that this site used to auto-upvote your own posts, like Reddit does, but now it doesn't anymore. It just feels weird.

I'm sure that this site used to auto-upvote your own posts, like Reddit does, but now it doesn't anymore. It just feels weird.
A lot of people actually complained about it and felt that it was like liking your own facebook post or redundant because of course you like your own content.
I personally prefer the automatic hearting because it turns red and looks prettier : )
It's really a matter of balancing the opinions and needs expressed to us and what we think is best in the end.
I agree with you. Red hearts are so much prettier!
So if enough of us complain it will come back? :)
You could change the color of the heart to red by default, and have it turn some other color when it's pressed.
I find myself up voting mine out of habit also helps me quickly identify my post when I see the Red Heart while scrolling through a thread.
Yep, I do the same.
There should be a setting for automatic upvotes 👀 but you have to enable it
I want auto-upvote back!
I'm obsessed with colouring them in... I just wish there were colours other than red. My box of crayons is broken guys!
That would be pretty cool as an April fools prank, make it so when you heart something it colors it in with a random color from the color hex.
haha that would be so fantastic.
I still want @Jaleh to make that Imzy colouring book a thing...
I'm not familiar with that?
It spawned from another discussion about all of us being obsessed with colouring the hearts in because they were lonely.
ohh, I think I remember seeing the beginning of that before but I guess I didn't see it evolve that far.
haha yeah... things have a tendency to get weird when I'm involved.
It would be nice if we could color our hearts green.
I think @greenie should automatically get green hearts on all their posts and comments hahah.
That would be fun if you could specify your own color. It would be like your mini-flair.
Would probably have to choose from a color scheme to make things pretty.
I could get behind that.
I totally support me having 💚's
