Should social media platforms only allow upvotes or favorites?

As I understand it, Kbin doesn’t allow downvotes just like Mastodon. Users can only mark a comment or OP favorite (upvote) and the Kbin user can see what account favorited / upvoted their comment or OP. Also if it’s from a Lemmy user by the way.

    TBH I feel like any social media platform, regardless of voting displays, has the potential to become a toxic environment.

      This. Look at facebook (although I know the “upvotes” aren’t anonymous)
