Why do upvotes and downvotes matter? Is this a real question?
Reddit became the karma farming shithole it is because of their engagement algorithms.
IMO this post points to a what some believe to be an intentional effort to poison rival platforms to maintain the current monopolies. I think that matters.

Yes, it is. Because on Lemmy, the down and upvote does not restrict your account (like how Reddit does it). From my understanding the upvote and downvote on Lemmy is more “upvote, so more users see it and downvote see it gets seen less”.
Which means if one person is trolling it and downvote but majority of users are upvoting it, it doesn’t matter much.

That’s one of the many reasons.
Also, you don’t sound very friendly and since your account is about 5 days old. I’m very skeptical of your comment and behavior.

They affect visibility. Exactly.
Skeptic away, friend. Your account was also 5 days old at one point, but whatever.
Glad Lemmy allows infinite blocking users. So welcome to the blocklist, don’t want to see unfriendly and unnecessary behavior from new accounts.
