Accessibility First DevRel. I focus on ensuring content created, events held and company assets are as accessible as possible, for as many people as possible.
And as I said I do not want to take away from your comment at all.
The problem is that if I am new to DEV.to and I see those are the top 5 comments I might think that there isnβt much going on here.
While I agree with the principle of what you say about encouraging niceness and community spirit (which is what I also love about DEV.to) the problem is that this incentivises people to just be βnicey niceβ and not challenge people. While we all know that some of the best lessons are in the comments.
Maybe I was having a bad day or something, it just seemed a bit too sugar coated and I guess I donβt have a sweet tooth! π

Hehe, don't worry ππ
"No good deed goes unrewarded."
Be yourself and challenge the guts out, being respectful all the time of course. Appreciation would surely be showered by the community.
Its not the badges that matter at the end of the day, it is the human lives that one gets to touch. Sweet tooth, certainly helps! ππ
