I think of downvotes and upvotes as head nods, and head shakes.
Head nods and head shakes are not constructive criticism.
Removing the ability to give low effort or low quality criticism would encourage us to put effort into real criticism, no?

As Lemmygrad does not support polls, ill use this comment as one.
Please upvote this comment if you think Lemmygrad should remove upvotes and downvotes, and downvote it if you dont.
The ex-redditor in me wants to say, “Downvotes should not be used for disagreement, derp”. It’s one of the (UX?) flaws with this format.
Also as a leftist instance, we want to avoid infighting through downvotes.
Sorry for latching on to your comment. Seemed the best place to say this
