@futurebird @dalias maybe more typically right than X, but I specialize in weird shit that will get immediately and falsely labelled as incorrect by many/most normies.

I mean, I've even started leaning into that as a way to find new things... for example, when I observe that certain topics are resolutely no-go by conventional wisdom, and take that as a sign to go there and think about things carefully.

But I agree, I have never participated much with SE sites, as I hated the gamification of "oh you can't do *that* unless you have XXX internet points", but I've run into this phenomenon many times on reddit, even been downvoted into oblivion when I was absolutely correct and the other upvoted guy was absolutely incorrect.
