Just out of sheer laziness?
No effect on my decision to downvote. I rarely downvote anyway, so the extra second it takes isn’t much effort.
What interface/appnare you using? On boost its exactly the same process for upvotes or downvotes. I don’t think an extra step would make any difference, I don’t downvote very often and when I do it’s because I think it’s worth doing.
I just found out you can downvote by sliding to the right on a comment. I’m still figuring out Lemmy
Well OP isn’t using Piefed but you can choose not to federate votes by default as a user settings option, and then you’d have to hold down the vote button to select a federated vote option instead.
Not for me.
I try not to downvote, either because it’s someone else’s (different) opinion, or because a reply would be more effective.
When a downvote is actuallu warranted, the extra step is minor.
Still, I quite like it. The effort delta between up and down votes acts as a reminder that we are better off building each other up, rather than tearing each other down.
Lol, I literally spent an entire day searching the web to find a fix for RE4 crack on Steamdeck, nothing will stop me.
I “sideload” (aka: install), I flash custom ROMS, and I’m even using Tor right now, takes like 10 seconds longer to load and I still deal with it.
No, I already think twice before downvoting.
Is this a reference to something new somewhere I’m not aware of?
No, I use the swipe on the comment
Oh, never knew that was a thing. Guess that’s why it was a stupid question
The vast, vast majority of votes are up votes already and instances can disable down votes. Why discourage down votes on instances that use them?
This seems like a solution in search of a problem.
My client it is just a tap then another tap. So no.
Maybe
No
Yes
