My hot take: You shouldn’t downvote comments you disagree with in a thread asking for hot takes.

I think this should apply in general, not just in this thread. Down votes are reserved for comments that do not positively contribute to the conversation.

I really like that you can view who upvoted/downvoted a post on Lemmy. Makes for some interesting analysis on some posts.

It’s a shame that this needs to be a “hot take”, I was hoping we’d be leaving that shit behind on Reddit.

I have always upvoted comments I disagree with if they are using good arguments. I save downvotes for hate and bad faith.
