What's the problem with having to justify your downvote and for that justification to be public for people to agree with it or not? As I understand that's what the Korean community wants not the abolishment of downvotes all together. It's meant to be proof of brain yet a lot of downvoting is made by bot accounts no history no interactions just downvotes done by cowards hidding behind annonymous accounts I don't think that's healthy for the system

Most bot downvotes have almost no value associated with them, so it does not really matter. Maybe we can think of a system how to fight downvote spam as well.
A hundred worthless bot downvotes add up it's also more about how they are used more not as a way of curating content but as a way of persecuting people who don't agree with whales have different opinions than majority of community etc
In short I think downvotes if smthng should be aimed at what is said I something not at who says it while with downvote bots targeting a user where is the content curation? It's just a way of bullying people of the platform, not really the land of free where there is no tyranny or racism as many claim steem is( personally I think most of those people either have there heads burried deep in sand or never had a thought of there own)
