The lack of downvote is probably one of the worse moves saidit has implemented versus reddit.

It lumps together bad comments with useless off-topic random sperg or just repeat comments. They're not the same.

The issue is, the same people propagating these absurdities would equally abuse the downvoting. Did the same on Voat, eventually drove everyone away. Block button is a godsend.

Since low effort people abuse down voting equating it to a disagree button. Not having the option compels the formerly low effort disagreeing party to defend their opinion instead. Not perfect, but better than contending with down vote brigades censoring things because they don't like the content.

What you said is 100% true.

But this isn't about refuting the content, it's about easily censoring content that they don't like.
