Absolutely not. It is misleading like on YouTube. Before they removed downvotes everyone could see if a video is useful or not. “Best tips and tricks for car repair” … 15341 upvotes? Nice! Maybe it’s helpfu–… 98412 downvotes? Maybe not THAT helpful.
it's so nice being able to see actual downvote count again instead of total score as well. glad lemmy has no motivation to remove that at the moment [what was reddit's reason? spam prevention? not worth it]
