    Fr like if you don’t like the way people are using the downvote feature why make a post whinging about it and not just make your account on an instance that has it disabled???

        Indeed, and this is a pinned post on Ye Power Trippin’ Bastards. Posters ask if their bans were justified. Downvotes bury the post, preventing an audience from making their opinion about it.

      Because it has a legit use. It’s just also used to create an echo chamber.

      If you believe that people can be just a little responsible, it’s better to have it around.

        Yeah if the problem is specific to a community I see how the software’s limitations could be an issue. I’m still unsure of what you were hoping to achieve with the post though.

        Idk, it can be kinda exhausting but I guess I kinda just operate on the assumption that strangers online are gonna act like a bunch of insufferable contrarians (I’m not always above that sort of thing myself).
