Today after updating Voyager the downvote button was gone. What is the reason for removing it? Is lemmy going the way of YouTube?

    On instances where downvoting is disabled, the button serves no purpose and will now not be displayed unless the instance permits it. The existence or absence of the downvote button is feedback on whether or not posts can be downvoted.

    If the button is not displayed then < your particular Lemmy instance > is the one to be accused of going the way of Youtube.

    Interestingly though, since you’re posting from Lemmy.world, I checked the list and your instance does allow downvoting. Maybe it’s a bug for [email protected]

    I on voyager 1.2.0 and downvote button appears for me btw.

      Yeah, it must be voyager issue. I downloaded Sync today and everything is as it should be.
