level the playing field

I’m not playing dependent upon others, just upon my own ideals. I feel like an upvote needs to mean something. In my case, it means, I need more people to see it, for me.
In most cases, the feeling behind my posts/comments are: If someone sees it, good, have fun.

How do these feel?

PreFix notation for mathematical operations. Hehe.
Interesting for me, but I’d rather not give this to someone who us more interested in making a plugin and calling it a day.
