Sorry to hear this. I agree that a lot of auto-voting is detrimental to Hive. It tends to favour the same few accounts rather than getting rewards to more deserving content, but generally things are better than they were on St++m. What we don't need is downvoting out of spite that drives good people away.
I am sticking with Hive as I have so many friends here and it's fun for me. I get a few downvotes, but they will not put me off.
Stay well.
