Far too often, lately, I see lots of people worried about the number of downvotes, or making preliminary justifications and requests to not downvote particular posts.

Me? I don’t have to think about any of that. The content of the posts and comments determines their quality, not some artificial number that only represents whether people dis/like something.

Edit: Wow, a lot of people from other instances seem really offended that I don’t like downvoting and seem a bit confused that I’d be thanking my admins for something I appreciate.

If you like downvoting, you don’t have to move here. Enjoy your instance’s features. Welcome to the Fediverse.

      You can go through life blaming everyone else for your own actions, but sooner or later someone’s going to get sick of your aggressive behaviour.

          That’s because you came into a discussion slinging insults with zero self awareness. You think a person disagreeing with an authority figure on a matter of politics is a personal insult.
