Currently downvotes are enabled on a trial basis, this was done by me to see if they can be enabled to prevent spam from rising to the top of communities, along with the fact that is another form of interaction/feedback.

However I've gotten some pushback for this and so I'd like to see the general consensus of this decision. Please put any comments/concerns in this thread, and please vote here: (Link gone poll is done)

the results of this poll and the comments will determine if we keep or remove downvotes again

I was for disabling down votes the last goaround wrt this topic, and I'm of the same opinion.

LemmyNSFW hasn't grown much more in the past year and this will just drive away more posters (of which there aren't much left) imho

Additional - I'd prefer that others block me (so they don't have to see what I post) or block/don't subscribe to various communities I mod that they don't want to see as part of their feed, rather than have them downvote individual top level posts.

Enabling downvotes wrt comments, I'm okay with...
