It often makes me sad seeing some posts receiving downvotes, even though I know it’s from random people across Lemmy instances who probably aren’t furries.

I could disable downvotes which would make it so that they’re ignored by the instance and the count would only reflect the amount of upvotes. But, that also means that Yiffit users wouldn’t be able to use downvotes anywhere else.

What do you think?

  • It is also why I left Reddit. Downvoting adds nothing to a discussion. It is just an excuse for people to express disagreement without participating in the conversation. Plus, what give you or any other user the right to decide which speech is worth being seen or not?
