The edit is the message that appears when I tap the little downvote arrow on the left that shows how many people downvoted the post/comment. It used to work before.

Today I commented on something and got 12 upvotes. Clearly, people liked my take. I also got 12 downvotes on the same comment and that provided a reality check - my take is agreeable to some, disagreeable to others. Then of course I have to take into account all the users in all instances that don't allow downvotes. How many people disagree with me that can't let me know without replying? Do I need to rethink my stance on that particular position or should I just double down on it because 12 people liked it?
I found out that I can upvote using the big arrow on the right and small arrow on the left (with the count). While the downvote arrow disappeared from the right the small one on the right remained. When I tap that it tells me that administrators disabled it.
Edit: "Downvotes have been disabled by server admins."
A person in a mask, I take the mask off and there's another mask and I take that off and there's another mask.... Repeat until waking up in cold sweat.
Similarly a dot appears in the sky and as it descends it is becoming bigger and bigger until it appears as a huge stone block with flat bottom. It starts filling up my entire field of view. Wake up in cold sweat.
That is bizzare!
It matters that if there's an option to upvote, there should be an option to downvote. Why have only one? What is the point of some instances having just one of them while others have both? I don't care about points but I like to see how controversial something is when I read comments.
Yes, I'm not sure if I want to stay on it since it can have opinions and I can only have positive ones.
It is always the better option.
Ok, no problém.
Thanks it's not there either, but I just found out that lemmy.world disabled downvotes.
Do you know where in settings?
