It’s such a shame. Lemmy should be a place where we collectively share ideas and debate. Comments should only ever be downvoted if they’re off topic, hateful or misleading. However, in reality people get downvoted mostly because someone simply doesn’t like or wholly agree with the comment.
It’s still better here than reddits awful circlejerks but not by much and we should be weary of devolving to that state.

Just to let you know, you posted your reply 3 times. I downvoted the other 2 (consider deleting them).
Yes I noticed, sorry, bad internet connection, I have deleted them now.
