I’ve been so used to judging a post just by its popularity on reddit, but it’s actually so much more useful to have an idea of the downvote ratio. I’m glad we have that here.
It was a scandal when it disappeared from YouTube, but I didn’t realize it was missing from Reddit too for much longer!
Well, different post categories indicate different meanings (usefulness).
For example, in political communities, I can get a rough estimate of the majority of users’ views/ideologies regarding a specific topic.
