It's also fun how they don't even reply, just downvote. Reddit lives on lemmy.world.
Reddit is actually quite good on Ukraine support. The bad thing about Reddit is that Spez has allowed Israeli brigades to bandwagon and sneak in support for "Israel at War" as if it was comparable.
Downvotes, frankly, Lemmy users are asking for it by not making downvotes transparent. It's really telling when an account that isn't really active jumps to downvote deeply nested comments., or when it's the same accounts downvoting your comments across different communities where they otherwise hadn't participated on until they began downvoting.
Yeah I think it is a mistake to have some people viewing who up votes and who down votes and others not seeing it. If the data is there, it should just be viewable by all, otherwise the "bad actors" you are worried about doing wrong things will still find ways to do them, and the standard person is just blinded from seeing those actions.
I just disable the view of the voting system. That fixes Lemmy for me, but once in a while when I'm not in an app or I'm logged out, I get to see the downvotes.
Tankies also downvote. Different flavours of Nazis.
