How would you feel if Warpcast replaced likes (the heart icon) with reddit / HN style upvote and added a downvote on every cast?

1 - strongly against this, would stop using the app
10 - hell yes, would greatly improve the experience

2-3

IMO upvote-downvote mechanic leads to more groupthink and dogpiling on contrary opinions

Downvotes create a negative feedback loop, prime people to pre-dislike the comment, and feel righteous indignation to dunk

Can happen with "like" mechanic but less pronounced, more likely to just see lack of engagement

I agree with this. Points of views that are even in the slight minority get buried on apps with upvote/downvote mechanisms, which seems counter to the tone of farcaster so far (which feels open to new/contrarian ideas).

Can’t think of many casts over the last year or so that I’ve felt the need to downvote.

This. Reddit can get toxic as fuck really fast.
