    people just downvoting for no reason

    Not what they’re for. The downvote is not a “I disagree with this comment” button, It is a measure of how relevant to the discussion a comment is.

    In this case your comment about how everyone is bad and evil and everything is actually not at all relevant to anything in this discussion

      I think it’s amusing how there are several people ITT that think the way people use upvotes and downvotes changed all because some amorphous entity tied to Lemmy said so.

      They are absolutely “I agree with this” and “I disagree with this” buttons, Hexbear should have definitively proven that to all of you.
