What is actually going on with the sentiment in this sub?

I generally do not care about internet points or upvote/downvote ratios, but I’ve noticed that any time a new player asks a question they get downvoted into oblivion, even if it’s in perfectly good faith. Literally happens maybe a dozen times per day.

I recently posted a question asking people for tips and tricks for enjoying playing on controller more, since I prefer mouse and keyboard but want to play on steam deck more often. That post got downvoted into oblivion, but I didnt care because I figured some people might be strangely offended by my preference for keyboard and mouse.

Today though, I noticed I got downvoted twice for a comment congratulating someone on completing ARR and letting them know they have a lot to look forward to.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this post got removed since it’s not explicitly FFXIV related, but while it survives, what is actually going on here? I dont seem to understand why people are so downvote-happy?
