Personally, I prefer Lemmy over Kbin because I hate karma and reputation points. I do not want to worry about downvotes, and Lemmy feels so fresh. I can post things that will receive lots of downvotes and not need to worry about losing karma.

There was an idea from blahaj.zone who considered making down votes enabled, but have less “weight” compared to upvotes. It sounded pretty interesting but I don’t think they implemented it yet.
Could you link that? I don’t see an obvious benefit, but it sounds interesting.

Thanks. This might be a good idea. It makes it harder to misuse and abuse downvotes.
