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

    I don’t know but I’ve always thought this sort of place should have 4 buttons for a post. Relevant Irrelevant, I like, I do not like. This way people could disagree with something, but show that they think it is a good fit for the magazine.

      I disagree. There is rarely a relevance for like/dislike and all upvotes and downvotes are, should be viewed as and used as indicators of relevance.

      Upvote what you find relevant/interesting, not what you like.

      Downvote what you find irrelevant to the community or what uses language that you find inappropriate for that community, not what you don’t like.
