thoughts on the concept of a darflen dislike button?
particular ideas:
- dislikes may show separate from likes instead of subtracting from the like count, similar to how youtube did it before they started hiding dislikes completely
- dislikes could be fully visible in notifications, showing exactly who disliked your post. this could either make beef escalate faster or keep people hesitant
- people should be given the option to turn off dislikes per post or per profile, in the event of dislike bombing
- dislike bombing ideally should be punishable
disclaimer: i am not a developer or moderator, i have no say in whether it would be implemented or not. thought this should be polled because the presence of a dislike button could encourage toxic behavior

"i suggested a revamp of the loves system over a year ago when i first joined, and in the end it wasn't changed because paradock was "too lazy" (his words)
i believe the winning option on the poll i posted was like/dislike ratio"
that was ayd's repost in case it gets deleted -
it could just be that there's no notification for dislikes or the dislikes notification doesn't show who disliked you or something anonymous like that
I don't think people would use it much tho tbh -
"dislikes could be fully visible in notifications" nobody does that, as you said, "this could (...) make beef escalate"
