Some people use downvotes to signalize a different opinion, which is kind of toxic. We want different opinions here. What we don’t want is hate, extremism, fake news, … That’s what deserves the downvotes.
People getting downvoted just for having a different opinion really annoys me. Same with seeing obvious trolls getting upvoted. It’s not ideal, but lemmy has an option to hide scores, and it makes browsing lemmy more pleasant to me.
