My moderator has been targeted by an unrelenting cyberbullying campaign, only so that I would come complain about it here and give free promotion to the abusers. (lemmy.sdf.org)

I'm a little bit tired of getting abused every time I come here to report abuse.

Thank you for your support. That is of course a valid question, but let me ask you this instead - if we do not stand up for those we admire, no matter the method of harm that is being done to them, how genuine is our admiration then.

    In what way is a downvote harm?

    I sort by New so votes genuinely don't effect what I see.

    Downclicks are a valid form of engagement. They convey very specific emotions of the downclicker to the content creator. These could be dissatisfaction, anger, hunger, what have you. For the most part, they are much more valuable than upclicks. Upclicks are easy.

    Weaponization of downlicks, like is shown in this here abuse report, drastically devalue other user's downclicks.
