Really loving the new experiences here on Lemmy.one. But I’m seeing many subs with off-topic posts. Community downvotes will help overworked mods find and remove such posts. I understand no one likes to be downvoted but it’s a necessary tool for our community and only helps users understand and refine what and where they are to be posting their content.

    I don’t miss it. For a lot of people down vote is just a I disagree with your take button instead taking the time to leave a comment instead of refuting it.

    If a comment is really problematic better to just report.

      Absolutely my feeling as well. I think the discourse is better for removing that button, and I haven’t missed it.

        I also know that if it returned I would use it as a I disagree with your take button as I’ve always done.
