Doesn't work on Jerboa. I hope we learned to not be experimental on this unique instance.

Is mobile login still broken? This is not good for instances trying to maintain users.

I agree with this.

Going through the comments some people say downvotes are important for ____ reason, which is actually correct. But that's not how I see it playing out.

And interestingly some comments, especially when you squint and read between the lines, actually show how people are misusing downvotes (I hope I'm not reading into it too much).

In any case when you look at how downvotes actually played out, perfectly fine posts (for their community) were being significantly downvoted. This is the right path, at least until things grow to be larger.

Going off my previous comment, I have a random thought what might be happening. On youtube (and I presume tiktok) when you downvote you curate your feed on what you like or don't like. On those platforms thumbs down feeds into an algorithm that adjusts the content. People might think it works the same here, when of course it doesn't. Just a handful of people that mistakenly think that is enough to be a problem at this point. Just another reason to get rid of downvotes if that's possible.

I think something needs to be done about downvotes. Any hardcore content I post is immediately downvoted. Pretty much all hard content I post gets 5 downvotes. Some recover, some don't.

I think people browse local and most don't seem to like hard content. People here seem to prefer softcore. That's fine, but downvoting is not the response to that.

I think you may have to remove downvotes and people will have to make their own subscription list and browse that. (What I do is browse local and then block the communities that I'm not interested in.)

Fyi I just made a bolted on community.

Was that one guy's load, or multiple? I'd love to take sloppy seconds on you.

Amazing. Look at that table spread.
