Has anyone else been trying to break their reddit-era habit of downvoting? (lemmy.ml)

I used to downvote fairly often on Reddit as a sign to disagree or to push down really disgusting bigoted comments. And to be honest, it became a habit to just downvote without replying. However, now that Iโ€™m on lemmy and not Reddit Iโ€™ve been actively trying to not instantly downvote things and instead move on or take the time to reply. Has anyone else been trying to do this?
