Yeah, for real. I don’t think this is a Reddit exclusive thing.
The Hive Mind is a scary thing, and while I definitely think that Reddit is one of the worst offenders of it, it’s present on any social media platform with the ability to downvote and also shows the downvote.
Thankfully on Lemmy, most of the major UIs give you the ability to hide down votes in general. I think Photon is the only one I’ve found so far that doesn’t have the ability to hide downvotes, which sucks because it’s also the best UI(imo) that I’ve found so far.
