There are a few opinions floating around on either or not downvotes should be disabled.

I’m interested to see what everyone thinks and if there’s a majority consensus one way or the other.

So please reply in this thread with your preference and why. You can also debate it in the comments.


Edit 23-03-2024 - Thanks everyone for your feedback. It looks like opinions are split on this, with good arguments made on either side. As downvotes aren’t currently a big issue, we’ll leave them as they are and we can revisit this again in future if things change.

    IMO maybe it doesn’t need downvote system. Upvote is fine as long as it gives positive. If anyone disagree, leave it as it is. No need to downvote to tell that you suck or you are not smart. Highest upvotes= confidence. Few upvotes= good effort or agree enough.

    Just my thoughts.
