Hive is, and should be a welcoming place for everyone. This also includes all sort of content that can be created, and there are no rules to limit that. Whether it's a long, informative post like what I do, or a simple selfie like yours, it's something that brings joy to people. If it does, and it gains attraction, there will always be up-, and down-votes coming along your way.

The point is, never get hung-up and wonder constantly as to why there's people downvoting what you've made. This is a phenomenon that will keep going, and one might never understand why they've pressed that button in the first place, as that's within their right to do so.

I made that mistake once, and now, I don't even think about the downvotes. It's there, but it's a tiny portion amongst all those that enjoy what you've made. Downvoting has a small effect, and if do well, that negativity is never something that should effect your enjoyment and happy times on Hive.

The last thing you want is letting that negativity overwhelm you, forcing you to hate others, cussing, or threatening retaliation. Let it go, let it be, and know that there are others who share your light more positively :-)
