Sometimes I see a post that could really use a downvote, but I can't downvote it. I really think being able to downvote posts that are not great (rascism, tankieism, dumbass takes, etc) is a really cathartic experience and I miss having it from my old instance.
I understand wanting to remove downvotes to combat negativity, but I don't think it's a good idea. When YouTube removed dislikes, people missed having them.
Edit: A lot of people are replying to this saying that if someone posts hateful content, I should just block and report them. Which I don’t disagree with, but there’s always content that’s annoying enough to want to downvote, but not bad enough to go against the rules of the sub. I’d rather just downvote that sort of thing and go on my way than leave a comment saying “shit’s cringe, yo”.
It's likely because you haven't set the languages correctly in your preferences. You need to make sure you have "Undetermined" selected in your preferences, as well as English and any other language you speak.
yeah, adding English to the list of checked checkboxes fixed it for me. Undetermined was already checked.
