Google should be embarrassed at how much better Samsung is.

Mods are afraid these other instances might influence your views. Just switch to another uncensored instance.

I cannot. I've set up a feed and when I go to a thread I just click in the text box and start typing. Might be something to do with your instance?

I'm doing it right now :)

There are a thousand other communities competing for users. This is an easy deal-breaker. Removing downvotes takes away the ability to hide spam and shitposts. If the users are downvoting "legitimate" discussion, it's probably because the users don't think it's legitimate, and the system is working as intended.

Instead the admin suggests you should "report" them. If this site were ever to gain any traction, there's no possible way the admin could sort through allll of those reports. That's the entire point of the downvote: community self-moderation.

aaaaand I'm out...
