I’m quite new to the fediverse, and noticed that on kbin you can actually see who downvoted a post or a a comment (and not only your own posts and comments), by clicking on the “activity” button.
My question is, how does this translate to Mastadon? I haven’t seen a “reduce” button and was wondering if it is the same as “block” or “mute” on Mastodon?
Maybe a bit of accountability isn’t a bad thing though. It might make the downvote more of an actual “this does not contribute” instead of a “I disagree”. Unless it’s on /m/unpopularopinions! (Did I do that right?) I do like that down votes are significantly less common so far.
I find that on mobile, I’ll come across something I’ve accidentally down voted since the buttons are on the right now! I can’t seem to find a list of what I’ve downvoted, though. I’d like to make sure I cleaned up after my fat right thumb!
Just to answer the “what I’ve downvoted”:
Might be a bug, but when you downvote it appears on your profile in the boost tab. Sadly removing the downbutton does not remove it from the boost section.
You can see that on my profile when I downvoted a bot. Now I have forever a sexting bot on my profile page…
