It wasn't always followed on Reddit, but downvoting there was supposed to be for comments that don't contribute to the conversation.
Here the guidance is looser -- the docs don't address comments, but do say to "upvote posts that you like."
I've tried contributing to some conversations and sometimes present a different viewpoint in the interest of thought exchange, but this often results in massive downvotes because people disagree. I'm not going to waste my energy contributing to a community that ends up burying my posts because we have different opinions.
That's true on Reddit to, so I'm kind of being tangential to the original question. I guess what I'm saying is that some people might feel like I do and won't engage in any community, be it Reddit or Lemmy, if it's just going to be an echo chamber.
My wife has a bad response to higher sulfite levels, so I've often substituted water with a splash of apple cider vinegar when deglazing. It adds a little 'tang' and depth to the dish, and it's really important that you don't put in too much vinegar. Put in a splash and add more to taste.
This method has always worked well for me.
