MODERATORS
Yes, you will have to be sure to join an instance aligned with your values on moderation.
I think not having that will turn this into a tiktok or instagram.
I'm now trying out lemm.ee which has downvotes, and so far looks good.
I disagree, but it sounds like lemm.ee will be a better fit for you, and that's the beauty of the fediverse 👍
Yeah!
The thing is others can downvote you from other instances. Just you can't.
I don't know if lemm.ee takes the downvotes into account for the score, or ignores them. But from other instances you can downvote the same post or comment.
-1 in terms of a comment score? If you can't downvote, yes, the score is never going to be negative.
That's the beauty of federation: you can choose any of the 90% (or higher) of Lemmy instances that allow downvoting, instead of one of the few that doesn't :)
Do you happen to know what happens if someone is on an instance that allows downvotes and downvotes a post on a different instance which doesn't allow them?
The downvote isn't federated.
