That's actually a really good idea, and it addresses most of my concerns with the downvote system. However, I have no idea what is involved in making that happen in the backend, and don't want to throw even more work at @supakaity :)
So, looking at the Lemmy code it seems pretty straightforward (like, really straightforward. There's two checks, one for comments and one for posts, so just make them use different functions). I can try doing it, maybe even propose it as a PR upstream. Might take me a day or two for a PR though.
If you don't end up making the PR I'm down to go check it out. If you do make the PR, link it so I can go give my support for it lol.
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3063 it got denied, and it's incomplete, but if you want to base yourself off of this I'm all for it.
Ah that's a shame, although I understand where they're coming from being wary of complicating settings for the front-end. Either way I'll look into it a bit when I can get to my PC and see if there's still any hope for it lol.
Regardless of what happens with it, I appreciate you making the PR!
If it’s straightforward, I’d Very much support this!
