At least on Reddit there was some leveling of downvotes built into the algorithm. This site is making it seem like any slight disagreement leads to downvotes thus encouraging more echo chambers. Maybe it’s the communities I’m commenting on?

It’s a bit vague from your post if you were referring to here or reddit, but I do want to inform the passerby that downvotes and upvotes are indeed public on Lemmy’s API, and app devs coul implement a name list of who downvoted and upvoted you if they wanted.
