It’s weird looking at my list of strong upvotes, given that a lot of them are posts I have no memory of. “I guess I really liked this post since I strong-upvoted it, also I guess it was forgettable since if you’d told me I’d never seen it, I might have believed you.”
(Possibly this says more about my memory than about the posts.)
Same. I think it comes at least partially from the fact that I can only either cast weak vote or a strong vote, and then even if I feel a post doesn’t deserve a full upvote, but it deserves it more than it deserves just a weak vote, then I’ll give it a strong upvote but somewhat reluctantly.
Also it can just be simple bad prediction. The post seems good and valuable when I first read it, but I end not thinking about it or using anything from it so I forget.
