Did anyone else have the experience that two downvotes on Reddit hurt more than the good feeling from getting100 upvotes? Or was that just me?

If they were used as they were originally intended which was 'only downvote spam, flamebait, and other content that objectively doesn't belong there' ie not as a 'disagree' button it would have been fine but in practice nobody ever used it like that even in the olden days of Reddit. I reckon BeeHaw made the right call by disabling them.
