This is social media for real people. Hosting reddit tier drama communities and user targeting is toxic to social media and will not be tolerated.

Thanks!

Lemmy dogpiles by default, and once a SINGLE downvote occurs, the post is very likely doomed.
Without much detail, I have anecdotal (yet compelling) 'proof'.

Posts should max out at -3, then a single upvote can help to resurrect it, whilst it can still be downvoted to -3.

This way, the dogpiling is reduced somewhat, and the "evil" post can still see engagement.

However, it'll never happen.

Stay safe.
