You misunderstand me. I realize those posts have the 'most votes', but almost every one of those posts is just from a period where Saidit had more users to upvote things, not because those posts are particularly great. 99% of all Saidits 'top posts' happened between 2-3 years ago

It’s wild seeing 200 votes on a post.

Also, I think this site would get more engagement with a downvote button.

I fully agree - I don't even think we need to make it give negative karma, but it would show the difference between a post with 10 likes and 1 dislike, vs a post with 10 likes and 50 dislikes, people could still get the message that the post is disliked by many, and give people a way to voice disapproval that gets noticed without taking away visibility.

I don't like the negative karma, a post with 3 upvotes and 3 downvotes is generating more interest than a post with 0 of each, but both would have 0 karma

Yea. No negative karma is a good way to avoid trolls or like “professional trolling”.
