      Depends from the point of view, is he protecting, or is he just collecting users…

    If only they would… although now that you asked them to do that, they will come here just out of spite:-).

      It funny when people take ownership of something they don’t own :-) I thought people wanted the fediverse to grow?

    It’s better, but I still often see posts with massive amounts of downvotes for no reason.

    Also this is specific to SJW, but I often see the opinions from the people that are less invested in the topic being pushed all the way to the bottom, due to the more active people downvoting everything. (agora)

      Is the goal of social media to inform, or be popular?

      Social Media-ites: “Yes”.

      :-P

    This assumes that the general Reddit user is even aware that the downvote button is for content moderation (downvoting off topic posts/comments, trolls, and things that are against the rules). The average new user and even probably most of the daily users doesn’t know that I’d wager. Further, tone is difficult to read from text, and a lot of the time if I downvote something at all (I don’t usually see much point) it’s either specifically because the comment or post in question is redundant/adds nothing to the conversation, it’s potentially dangerous, or the tone I get from it is trollish or condescending (and therefore toxic). I wonder if that is considered childish or whatever by the people who get downvoted.

    The thing that I hate about it is that I am on the spectrum, and as such have posted things that have gotten down voted to hell and back but even when I ask why, I never get an answer. The question “why is this happening I don’t understand” only feeds the down votes. Now, idgaf about internet points, I’d just like to know what’s wrong about what I said.

    And for the record I’m normal ASD, not the 4chan Hitler shit, so it’s not because I said anything racist lol

    kBin overall seems a lot friendlier. Like, there absolutely a handful of some crappy contrary trolls I’ve encountered, but not like the 8 per thread on reddit.
