This instance (lemmynsfw.com) has removed downvotes. I have shown my negative attitude to downvotes in this reply (NSFW) to a [] post. I hope and think that I didn’t have significant impact on this decision.
I want to use this post as a reminder that this community is not focused on one specific gender or one specific sexuality. This community is intended for any pre 2000 NFSW, porn or erotic content (as long as it doesn’t break the instance rules of course). I really hope Lemmy introduces a tag/flair feature in the future so people have an easier time filtering out posts that don’t fit their preference.
I encourage everyone to report posts that break instance or community rules. I also encourage everyone to reply with contructive criticism to posts that they don’t like, if possible.
Edit: clarification, I meant negative attitude to downvotes
I’m glad to see downvotes are back, because the scenario I described happens more often than you realise;
