@Tim_Eagon @Enfors@lemm.ee @HexedPress As someone with a 13+ year history and 60k+ comment karma on the damn site, I agree!

@Tim_Eagon @Enfors@lemm.ee @HexedPress Well, yes and no I think? I’ve also seen discussions - where there was no downvote button - deteriorate because people posted stupid nonsense that couldn’t be downvoted. So this is not an easy problem to solve, without resorting to forcing people to go through a mini-tutorial on how to use the downvote button before they’re allowed to. And even then, people would still misuse it.
