how much more should we do to ratio libs on lemmy?
No. Downvoting sucks. If you want to ratio libs, upvote everyone else. It amounts to the same. You see it in these dunking threads. The dunks are +80 and the original comment is +5.
Downvoting also gives rise to the old reddit phenomenon “the downvote fairy”, where someone would go into someone’s profile and downvote every comment, or downvote every other comment in a thread.
If you want to ratio someone, do it Twitter style by leaving a reply or screenshotting and posting to the dunk tank. It’s more fun for everyone.
Absolutely agree. I would say we should lobby for doing away with downvotes entirely across the fediverse, since it has had only positive results afaik.
You’re instance is certainly onto something. Since seeing the Hexbear way, I’d be in support of getting rid of down votes on lemmygrad.
Heck no. Libs getting ratio’d on their own instances when we don’t even have the ability to downbear is fucking hilarious.
I love seeing
“Hmmmm, curious! You have 15 upvotes but I seem to have no downvotes. Nice bot farm you have there!”
god no. force cowards to explain themselves instead of hiding behind a downvote.
No, we’re already massively drowning out and ratio’ing reactionaries
Downbears can be the nuclear option
