Oh, I get that. It’s just funny the effort others will go through to increase their own personal stress, rather than blocking a term/user/community/instance. Wild stuff.
Eh, giving out a downvote isn’t a stressor, nor it’s it necessarily personal. It’s not even an indicator that the content should be removed, just that a user doesn’t think it’s helpful/fun/or contributing to the discussion
It’s bare minimum feedback where blocking is not. And honestly, we should encourage more of it, rather than encourage people to create their echo chambers (within an already somewhat echo chambery platform)
If anything is personally stressful, it’s stressing over an anonymous user’s opinion that has very little context to it. Downvotes don’t even hide or reduce visibility of your comments or posts in most of the sorting methods.
