minus-squareSkavau@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·4か月前I can throw it to Rimu, although I imagine the amount of users that truly only occasionally downvote (and never upvote) are pretty rare.
minus-squaregoferking (he/him)@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up5·4か月前As per my edit it’s the entire point of the system to only go by up and down votes
minus-squareSkavau@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·4か月前Okay? Downvotes are valid at identifying bad posts, but spam downvoting is frowned on all the same.
minus-squaregoferking (he/him)@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up5·4か月前It’s not spam if the user only downvotes. They may not think anything is worth an upvote but do see lots that they think are downvotes
minus-squareSkavau@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·4か月前I agree. That’s why it should take into account time between downvotes. Although I will add that I think the particular usertype you’re hypothesising is pretty rare.
minus-squaregoferking (he/him)@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4か月前Not really, but sure. Again if people care about downvotes that much it should just not be an option instead of used as a way to purge
minus-squareSkavau@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·4か月前It’s not used as a way to purge. I think downvotes can be useful, but I would still ban spam downvoters from my communities (not the instance).
