  • Coming from Beehaw, which always had downvotes disabled, I don’t think downvotes are necessary for a healthy Lemmy instance. More popular content will naturally surface by virtue of having more upvotes; there’s no need to have a mechanism to “pull down” less popular content.

    I also think that downvotes are too easily abused or weaponized. It’s trivial to downvote bomb all of a user’s or a community’s posts. Without downvotes, to achieve the same effect, you’d have to upvote every single other post that exists.




  • I’ve been playing for a bit over a year but have taken a break since PES came out. Like, when the game works it’s amazing, but I’ve just had too many frustrating encounters recently (and I’d rather not play until CIG gets in-game-purchased ships persisting across updates consistently).

    With that said, I am very much looking forward to all the tractor beam enhancements/changes. I’m just a big fan of all the goofy and gimmicky things you can do with tractor beams. I’m also excited for the SRV; I want to build scrap yards and yeet asteroids at people.
