Hello. I've found that rather suddenly, all of my comments within the past week have exactly 3 downvotes. These are even on totally unassuming comments, like a comment I posted saying that French is used in a lot of African countries.

I believe it might be possible that I am suddenly being harassed be a user with multiple accounts or something.

Looking for some guidance.

Thanks all.

Do you happen to know how I can send a message to someone on the fediverse without navigating to their profile? I'm a bit slow but I can't seem to figure it out. When I go to the instance in question to figure out who the admin is, I can't message them because I am not logged in on that instance. Because my account is on lemmy.world. I tried searching their name in the post/comment search feature, but they don't seem to always pop up that way.

There is a "messages" tab where I can view messages that I have sent and received, but I can't figure out how to just send a new message to a user there without clicking on their profile first.

Thanks for your help. I guess I wasn't expecting that to be confusing unless I'm missing how to do it.

    You should be able to navigate to their profile from your own instance and hit the button to send a DM to them. AFAIK there's no place to just type in the user's account name and send them a DM without using that button unless using an app that has that functionality.
