  Wow! --three downvotes, just for recommending pinboard. Tough crowd!

    It's most likely not because you recommend Pinboard, but because you added a non-substantial comment when a click on the "upvote" button would have been sufficient.

      >because you added a non-substantial comment when a click on the "upvote" button would have been sufficient. I did click on the upvote button. But, since no-one else, apart from the original commenter, can see how many upvotes his/her comment gets, how does that help back up someone's suggestion? I wouldn't normally post a simple "me too" or "+1" but, in this case, the original poster was asking for a recommendation. So I think, in these circumstances, it's justified [and less messy] to give a 'me too' to a suggestion you agree with, rather than [as many others have done] post a separate reply, recommending the same site. >...it makes for boring discussion and just adds noise. Yeah, we definitely don't want any noise here. Scrolls though dozens of repeat submissions of the same story every day, hundreds of submissions of tweets as news stories, endless spammy posts for 'keto gummies' and the regular moronic opinions of Evon-fucking-Latrail [whoever the fuck he is!]

        More noise, then. Don't add more noise. Just because there's a dog turd on my front lawn, it doesn't mean everyone should start dumping all the dog turds on my front lawn.

    I didn’t downvote you, but I can understand people downvoting comments that are unsubstantive. It’s typically not accepted here to complain about being downvoted either. As per the guidelines, it makes for boring discussion and just adds noise.

    Probably more for the superfluous 'this' comment.
