It’s freeing in a way, I don’t have to do any extra processing in my head, and can just see the posts and comments for what they are. You should try it too!

Voting is decentralized moderation. It’s harder to navigate content in servers that disable downvotes. I get what you’re aiming for here, but the downside is not worth it for me.
I agree, I won’t argue against their usefulness. I just meant disabling them for myself personally. I used to tend to judge posts and comments from their upvote/downvote scores rather than their actual content, now I can see them for what they are, in my eyes. I found that pretty cool and refreshing.
I understood that, your message was clear. I don’t want to be blind to votes for my own sanity though (filtering out potentially damaging interactions). Different strokes for different folks.
