I love Hive but.....
I hate the downvote part of Hive the reason being it is already being used as a weapon against people for no reason other than hate or pettiness.
Being able to financially attack and ruin people is a power most people should not have regardless of their so called reasoning.
I have seen innocent people taking a journey on Hive, be attacked not just by one person that doesn't like the content, no they do it alongside groups using a tool like hive.vote to create downvote trails.
I think dislike is better than being able to financially attack people, honestly most people in the world should not have this ability they ain't ready.
It is naive to think people would not abuse this type of feature.
Interesting all the same @achim03

I think that you have both sides of the medal. People abusing the reward pool and others abusing the downvotes. I'm not a big fan of downvotes and I probably have never used them on hive. I think however that it's good that they exist. On the other hand I also agree that some people abuse their power using downvotes as a bulling method. I'm not against using a downvote on a post that uses AI or is plagiarisme but then I als believe that everybody deserves a second chance and I'm against auto downvoting on people who once made a mistake...
