      It at least seems to somewhat be the actual intended use in Lemmy’s case. Being from that recent wave of new users, I’ll confess thinking that Lemmy could do away with the vote system entirely; on Reddit, it always annoyed me to see, say, a well-written opinion about a piece of media being buried at the bottom of the page just for going against the grain.
