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.
Once you get enough people somewhere the whims of the crowd can be fickle. If you post that you like orange soda you probably don’t have much to worry about but if you dabble in politics or religion then sometimes you meet an angry mob. The best thing is to not take it personally.
