No downvotes just allows whomever was first to dominate discussion.

Even on reddit - I would often reply to a heavily upvoted post, and btfo them with facts - only to see my comment rise, and their upvoted post to go into the dumpster. To be able to pull that off, in Marxistville homeland was truly awesome.

The problem with reddit was the admin level bans, rules - and who controlled the subs. It was never the downvote feature.

I disagree.
On reddit I am usually downvoted beyond the bottom.
On Saidit I am still somewhere in the middle or even on the top.
This means that I am able to give a good argument that might conflict the narrative or the fake news.

On reddit a majority of the posts are completely dominated by click-farms, bots and reposts.
And manipulations by the admins.
Some discussions on reddit are only interesting after sorting on "controversial".

Weather your arguements get more traction and upvoted and weather you deserve it is anecdotal at best.

You do realize the posts are still sorted by upvotes here, right? They're not in chronological order.

First comment has more upvotes and will continue to accumulate at arguably a faster rate just for being first.

That’s what happens when no downvote.

My experience with reddit is the opposite where those with the correct knowledge will get down voted by the masses likely because in obscure areas the masses are all wrong, think the Galileo situation
