The situation I described has been abused in reddit through even the downvote system by various subreddits for everything from memes to pushing presidential candidacy. Imagine the_donald in a world without downvotes.
Dude… You should get paid for this, you are too skilled at being annoying to do it for free.
It was just an example of a functional link aggregator with no downvotes. There are others you could look at. None of it had fucking anything to do with federation, or your opinion of the community, or anything like that.
Can we be done? Do you have some last things you wanna say before I leave and don’t come back?
These examples you show are small and not proven to be viable. Beehaw for one had several problems outside of not having downvotes that make it as an example problematic, and Lemmy as a whole is such a broken experience right now that you can’t use anything here to prove that having no downvotes is viable either.
Beehaw only defederated from lemmy.world and a few others, btw. It isn’t isolated, and it is fine IMO.
Maybe this disagreement is all opinion, you just don’t like anything but a fully curated feed. Did you never browse by new? I think the way things are here is fun.
I’m probably only gunna wait for one more response if you wanna say something else. I really wanna be done here, so please say what you wanna say and we can both move on with our lives

Neither of us are going to gain anything from this continuing.
I can actively observe no downvotes working fine in several instances. Not having downvotes doesn’t bother me in the slightest.
You don’t believe it would work, no matter what I say. You think not being able to downvote a bad post would ruin everything.
I don’t want to talk about this anymore. If you want to see how it works to confirm or deny your assumptions, just go look at beehaw.org or something.
Let’s go look at beehaw after they defederate from everyone lol.
