I'm referring to downvoting altogether. I misspoke in the other comment. I don't actually know what the data behind a display of downvotes is, but downvotes themselves have significant negative effects on overall user behaviour, activity and happiness. They also create circlejerk communities and I think a major concern right now is struggle sessions are potentially alienating various people for not conforming on some topics to ML views. If socdems and anarchists are alienated too hard (which is happening in some of the struggle threads) the site is just a second lemmy with no ability to attract libs and convert them.
Are you rebro? You come across just as combatively but maybe slightly less natural? I really don't understand why you're constantly rude though, stop acting like you're in a bar fight all the time, there's just no need for it. It comes off like a performance.
Not everyone who criticizes you is rebr0. If I come off combative it's because the litany of things this site has been doing wrong from the woke censoring, the dark mode default, the community splintering, the design shifts, etc. are almost solely negative in user impact.
When something improves I'm positive about it, but you see my negative comments on threads like these where you just removed all downvotes displaying. Seriously.
Nah don't give me that. There's a difference between constructive criticism and open hostility and personal attacks. Nobody has any problem with constructive criticism, everyone has a big problem with constantly be called names, personal attacks, ableism and other elements of the way you're expressing criticism.
The people are putting in absolutely constant work into things, flat out, and this behaviour serves only to demotivate people. In addition to that it comes across as if you're actively trying to get other users to engage in it too, and you're pretending that users are leaving when I demonstrated in the last thread that's not happening. It has made me wonder more than once if your intentions are harmful.

What the fuck? You want to actually entirely remove downvotes?
Do you workshop for the worst possible ideas or is it just what flows off the top of your head?
