I personally find this to be a good things, I’ve seen people using downvote way too easily. I like the idea that we need to be somehow accountable for those mechanism.
edit: It could be somehow improved to have an option to let this info only available between concerned users.
edit edit: I think that up/downvote info shouldn’t be public, but kept private between the users involved. we need to address this privacy issue.
I agree on all points especially about the social media feel. I don’t want instagram or facebook where it shows so and so liked/disliked/reacted to something.
I think this forces something that nobody paid attention to in Reddiquete, which was that if you don’t like something, you just shouldn’t vote on it. Downvotes were supposed to be for when something actively didn’t belong, not just something you didn’t agree with. Of course, another way to do that would be to just get rid of the Reduce button entirely.
I mainly used downvotes on trolls and other bad-faith comments, people just being purposefully annoying in the comments. Exactly the kind of people I don’t want to engage with, just downvote and move on.
