Why are they disallowed? And more importantly, why is this not transparent in the pinned post about Lemmy.one as a rule?

I was blindsided by this when I saw another user mention it, and while I enjoy Lemmy.one very much, I'm considering moving on because of this. I rarely, very rarely, down-vote, but at times it's handy to push down misinformation or adverse content.

It feels a bit too much like YouTube and the removal of the dislike button to me. What are other's thoughts?

@TheSageRedneck I mean, this is one of the main goals with the disabled downvotes in the first place actually, which makes me think the system is working. I’d much prefer actual racist posts be reported rather than merely downvoted.

That makes sense and works for me. I'm easy. I really appreciate you hosting lemmy.one!
