I’m searching around for a lemmy client to that has the option to hide downvotes altogether.
I don’t mind if downvotes are still counted on the instance side, i just don’t care.

I think Lemmy should do something new, enforce creating a comment when downvoting.
Let’s try it… No.
It’s just going to turn into a spam fest.
What I like about downvotes is they let what’s controversial be shown as controversial and similarly what’s just an unwelcome idea be shown as such.
Yes but often people just downvote stuff without saying anything to it. If they would put a comment there, it would at least be clear that they didnt read past the first line
if i dislike something, I don’t always want to have to explain myself. sometimes i just dislike something and want to show it by a simple click. specially on mobile I don’t want to write a comment each time. otherwise i would just stop voting completely instead of writing a comment each time i downvote something.
Sometimes others have already made a comment explaining your exact opinion of what you just downvoted, so instead of spamming more comments you can downvote one and upvote the other which explains your opinion.
Yes but this leads to people superficially reading and disliking.
So if it doesn’t get an explanation to you specifically, it’s “superficial”. The entitlement on some of y’all; gyatt…
No
Tap for spoiler
There, I did it!
Skill issue; if you want to be engaged with, make an engagement-worthy comment rather than something a person with actually-functional lobes would eyeroll, downvote, and scroll past.
