Rule #2 is possibly our most important one:

Be respectful. Everyone should feel welcome here.

Learn to disagree without being rude or disrespectful.

It can be difficult sometimes, since western social media thrives on collective outrage, and they knowingly ingrain this into us for years. But please do adhere to this rule, and it will make this place much more enjoyable.

We will not hesitate to issue temp bans (usually a day or two) for those who make everyone's experience unpleasant.Hit the report button if you see this behavior.

Thanks!

this only works for your own instance. someone from another instance can still downvote you

Yes, nothing prevents them from hitting the button. But the downvote wouldn't be federated. Beehaw would never know if everyone else was downvoting them.

hm. Seems you're right. The original score doesn't get updated if you downvote. Only the score on your own instance. Why even show the button on this one comment if it's inconsistent like that?
