mbin is now federating downvotes so now i can see how much of the lemmyverse ~~hates~~ disagrees with me on my home instance.

i know down votes are a contentious subject in some places, but i welcome them as useful communicative flags.

.. also seems to have cleared up the messaging queues handling the dropping of those federated votes. things are flowing better.

Obligatory down vote given in support and celebration!

Lemmy seems to downvote me far more than Reddit did so I turned votes off in my app. I was surprised how soothing it felt

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol I just take downvotes as confirmation at this point.

As in: I'm upvoted by smart people and downvoted by idiots.

I'm aware of the logical inconsistency of this position.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I only downvote idiots. You have been upvoted. So your logic is sound

Which app is that?

Sync

I turned off the scores and I already dislike this place less. Getting downvoted poisons my mind no matter how hard I try and convince me otherwise

[–] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

sounds like a serious mental difficulty. i hope you find your better place. i know Beehaw.org is a very nice, non-votey place

Nice to see Mbin progress!

I use an instance free downvotes, but good to see that people have choice

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'll follow you around and upvote you.

Hmm, so federated downvotes from Lemmy are public now on mbin, not just local downvotes and federated upvotes. Interesting. Does mbin-mbin downvote federation work? kbin doesn't federate downvotes to you. (I checked -- for science! -- but switched back to an upvote afterwards.)

@e0qdk

kbin doesn't federate downvotes to you

Kbin doesn't federate downvotes to anyone. Our downvotes are only seen by each other.
