It’s kind of disappointing how people tend to use the upvote/downvote buttons. Sure, if it’s an opinion you don’t like, then downvote it to hell.
But if OP is posting a link to a legit article. That’s not an opinion, that’s facts. Downvoting facts makes them less likely to be seen by others.
Use those buttons wisely. I don’t like it any more than many others, but I’m gonna tap that upvote in hopes it might help more people see the news!
Downvote me if you want, IDGAF.
The votes still order or rank the posts that are there. You are seeing higher vote posts first. So it does matter albeit not as much as on reddit.
Not if you sort by new/newest comment.
I actually do sort by new, but I also realize that not everyone sorts the same way.
Thanks for chiming in 👍
