Just wish there were more transparency around counts and content engagement.
I firmly believe most influencer these day were propped up with payed views and botted engagement. Not that lemmy is the same but it all feels so dirty.

This sums it up exactly!
You aren’t just downvoting comments you disagree with, you’re downvoting comments because you don’t understand them.
By downvoting instead of commenting you never open that discussion to learn about somebody’s view.
And by downvoting you’re reducing the chance that somebody else might see the comment. Who either does understand it, or responds to continue the discussion.
What?
To go with the theme of this thread, I have no interest in debating why I downvoted you, nor if downvotes should be used for any reason. What I didn’t get is why you would (or not I guess since you replied) disengage with someone that downvoted you.
My actual question that you can’t seem to answer was: now that you know I downvoted your comment (the information you’ve been advocating for), now what? What are you going to do with that information now that you have it? Why is it so important to you to have it?
