Love posting something like a tip for making running an old game easier on Reddit and the only engagement I get being some twats downvoting the post for no reason :angery:

The idea of giving posts a thumbs up or a thumbs down elevating the quality of discussions is such a :so-true: brained concept anyway

    Forums typically sort by most recent reply. Controversial threads on forums are also typically the most visible because they are being replied to more often. Forum drama is even worse than hexbear drama.

    I think it's important that hexbear is a link aggregator and not a forum. The primary purpose of hexbear should be to sort links to other websites based on importance. Discussions are secondary.

    I just think hexbear needs better sorting algorithms since removing the downvote has messed up the current algorithm.
