      Strong disagree. Voting is preliminary moderation. It’s the wisdom of crowds. The fact Lemmy does nothing to hide comments at +1 -48 is fucking horrifying… especially when mods don’t just delete that shit, despite demanding all responses to it be “civil.” As if gentle and polite replies are appropriate in the face of plainly intolerable horseshit.

      • yeh but as a user, votes r unnecessary info that just makes u worry about fake internet points instead of just focusing on the post or comment itself, they make u compare posts and comments by their votes and often affect how u react to something when what matters is the content and replies in them
