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.

    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

    Nice to see Mbin progress!

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

      kbin doesn’t federate downvotes to you

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

      i would expect mbin->mbin to honor the federated downvotes, assuming the newest version of mbin 1.30.current. definitely could use a good test though

      not sure who knows or not, but the 'bins also publicly make available a ‘reputation score’. aka, karma. so even if you think youre living a karma free life over in lemmy, its calculated elsewhere.

      i am enjoying the public nature of the voting as downvotes now require consideration. i have noticed i use it far less than in the privately held voting systems like reddit.

        When you put it that way, it’s weird in hindsight to think of everyone here calling Reddit toxic. People are the people around them, but now it’s good I guess (if you ask me, I enjoy both sites).

      I get… A lot of downvotes in the Lemmy verse. I never knew how contentious and controversial I was.

      Was your hand generated by AI? Because I’ve just had a look at your comment history, and you have over 50 downvoted in the first page or two of comments.

    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
