Exactly. This was my thought. I remember early reddit. It was amazing and we all said the same shit
Being able to upvote and downvote posts meant anything could be posted and the community moderated. Then it all shifted. Voting no longer mattered other than to be smug and say you don’t agree. I look at lemmy and it seems like it took the moderator first approach. It took the worst parts of reddit.

If you don’t understand the distinction between voting and federation, perhaps toy need to do some more reading?
Nothing I said implied this. We’re all having a discussion here. I don’t think this type of lazy statement helps anything.
