Can't say about "downvoting the comments we don't like", but downvoting for disagreement has always been allowed: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16131314

Can't say about "downvoting the comments we don't like", but downvoting for disagreement has always been allowed: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16131314 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16131314 As siblings have demonstrated, it's not hard to find something disagreeable in gp, and it's debatable whether "all he said is true" (the general observation about "purchases" is true AFAIK, more specific accusations aren't clear).
(I didn't downvote.)
- zuppy 6y agoi know it’s allowed, but it has the very important side effect of hiding the opinions that we disagree with. i would keep the downvote for low quality comments, spam... this sort of stuff.
