It would be great to know, in my opinion, for future reference. I can’t wrap my head around why it would even be downvoted lol.

The Internet is a fickle creature. Lemmy users tend to not support posts that could be interpreted as an ad. Flagship phones seem to be a top item on the hit list.

Personally, I have used flagship phones but do not plan to in the future. Cheap ones last longer in my experience and don't have ads in menus and undeletable bloatware. After buying a Samsung TV, which has the above issues and more, I don't plan to buy anything from that company again.

Please don't dwell on posts that do badly if you are being genuine. Might just need to try a different community for these types of posts.

I’m not new here. Lemmy Is very fickle with a lot of specific words. I’m just trying to figure out which ones those are here. Maybe that’s it. They never heard of MKBHD and think I posted an ad.

It doesn't really matter why someone downvoted a post and people don't have to explain why they downvoted, ignore it and keep posting or don't, it's all pointless anyway.

I agree it’s not important. I’m more curious than anything. I have a running buzz word list that I know will incite down votes and anger. I’m guessing Samsung is now on that list. Or I’ll find out when I post a MKBHD video again and it’s about some foss only custom rom capable phone and it’s still downvoted.
