Re:Please Bring Back Our Downvotes: Society Desperately Need... by acover on Wednesday July 28, 2021 @09:20AM (#27983360)
Votes determine visibility. A post doesn't matter if it's not visible.

A bad vote is more harmful than a bad comment. Bad comments get sorted. A bad vote makes the front page worse.

Making votes visible makes the bad actors visible. Though I think other feedback mechanisms are better.
