    Probably first time seeing a post on 196 that has same number of upvotes and downvotes (and it’s not 1-1)💀

        I’m still not very sure about this and I wanted to ask about it here for a long time. I think they are “disabled”, but I think on lemmy, disabling them means that for every 5 downvotes the system shows a downvote. I don’t exactly understand how it works on communities with downvotes disabled.

        Edit: I found this post by Ada about a year ago:

        https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/104422

        Turns out that it (probably) was decided to modify the downvote system so that for every 5 downvotes, 1 downvote appears. I’m still kinda confused tho😅

          As far as I understand it, blahaj has downvotes disabled, but since Lemmy is federated and other instances don’t, they can still downvote.

            So does this mean the downvotes I see on blahaj are exactly the number of downvotes from all the users in instances that allow downvotes which my instance federates with?

            (I wrote it in such a confusing way, but I dont know if I can make it any better😅)

            Edit: could you please downvote this comment from your (not mander.xyz) instance to test if the downvotes federate?

                I think from the tests I did here with 2 people (from different instances) the downvotes are from any instance that federates with mine (though still not 100% sure).

                I asked above to downvote me from their non-mander.xyz instance and I can see 2 downvotes.

          I think when they are disabled you can still see the downvotes from your own instance but none from other servers. I’m the only user on my instance so at most I was able to see my own downvote.

            Can you see my downvote on your comment? (Give it about a hour or so to federate)

            I will remove it when you’ll reply (or if a day has passed).😅

            Also, can you see any downvotes on this post? (I see 6 so far.)
