minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish19•2 years agoThat’s correct. It’s also horrible for the comments section because people hate-downvote comments they disagree with, which in turn leads to people avoiding making possibly unpopular comments. It’s really hurtful to meaningful discussion.

Hate down votes are inevitable, I don’t think they are a result of your total number of points being displayed on your profile.
