To each their own I guess
Downvoting posts in the All feed isn’t that bad, as it reduces their visibility if you believe it doesn’t interest you at all and probably most won’t interest many other people, so you let a chance to other posts to show up
Edit: typo
Yea for sure
I believe most "vote manipulation" bans aren’t really on that case though
It’s mostly "you strongly disagree with us? Fuck you!"
I don’t use it, but I also believe context obviously tells you that it was meant as a bad choice for "crazy" / "obsessive" and not a discrimination against those people
No need to minimod and taunt
I don’t know this one, worth checking out?
Your voice matters. Downvoting can be useful to prevent echo chambers (ex: downvoting lemmy.ml bs)
Now if the thing is just not fundamentally wrong like it’s just subjective and you don’t like it, yea it could harm, but the most likely is that less people will do it than people liking this type of content will upvote
Its only really problematic on smaller instances or if you do it continuously for every single post without a good valid reason
So you’re at the bottom 🤔, but where on the horizontal axis is to be guessed
blahaj up left
I have the feeling that db0 is down right
settings -> block instance
And then your life will be a bit better
Finally someone that speaks out
the amount of gaslighting they do is enormous
any instance admin can see all upvotes/downvotes on any message from the web UI
fediseer which is basically "get approved by me or people I approved, or get fucked"
they basically have absolute power in this system
the whole "if you don't like the content, don't downvote, but just ignore / block it" is really cringe
It's going to be okay
keep calm and go fuck yourself

That’s a super shitty thing to do
He’s basically cheating and stealing from 35 people
I feel so bad for it
USA cops: let’s skip all 4 🙃
ChatGPT is boring
Now let’s create drama
Let’s do the same for lemmy instances 👀
