Works pretty well on Reddit.
It's not perfect, but reddit threads sorted by "best" are a sight better than threads sorted by "new".
Upvotes-only wouldn't get you the same effect, since "best" is about the ratio.
Honestly twitter should implement downvotes and just copy reddit's thread-sorting system verbatim.
Finally, I swear I saw downvotes on the Twitter app some time in the last few months. Unless it was an April fools joke, it was briefly a real feature! What happened?

Reddit doesn't actually work that well, and it only works as well as it does because of human moderation outsourced to people volunteering for a for-profit company. > Finally, I swear I saw downvotes on the Twitter app some time in the last few months. Unless it was an April fools joke, it was briefly a real feature! What happened? They did some A/B tests. I don't use Twitter, but it was in the news.
