pull down to refresh

Let's be real

The guy who pulled a gun on him and tried to Rob him was a nigger

This is why we need downvotes...

reply

Well that would just turn into a free money button, abused by all...

What we need is a seperate reputation score, not censorship.

Of course a proper system would allow you to block seeing anyone with a reputation below your chosen threshold.

reply

why "free money button"?

yes, i think individual blocking is the way to go.

reply

Well if you pay money to vote up, clearly a vote down would be to receive money.

reply

Haha, I see. That would be hilarious.

You essentially stake your money on your comment and people can slash you if they don't like you

reply

Unless the slashing sends the sats to SN devs

I am not sure if downvotes are what we need here

I dislike that the downvote button disappeared on YT videos since it was helpful to see dislike counts on videos.

But I also don't like when comments get harder to read like on HN or people just downvote because they don't like the opinion of others (reddit comes to my mind there). They could just as well just not upvote.

You aren't going to change a person's opinion by downvoting them. So why downvote them? What does it achieve?

Just throwing in my 2 sats here

reply

Yeah you're right, it was a bit of a kneejerk comment. I'm not sure what the right solution is.

reply

I would prefer the option to block someone. I would pay sats to permanently not see threads/posts from select users.

reply

I would prefer to be able to just block these people
