What app are you using?
Sync has swipe to vote gestures and I mistakenly up/down vote a comment while scrolling. I fix the down votes but no idea what that does on the backend with lemmy.
It’s not just this app, it happens to me all the time with different apps.
It happens in email, mastodon, etc.
It’s just that touch screens can be imprecise and sometimes downvotes are just people operating their phones without realizing it.
Fair enough. I tend to avoid apps and just use websites, so I don't have that problem
