What is the purpose of voting up or down on? I’m not clear what voting is suposed to achieve?
I never vote up or down on here in the same manner that I never click Like on any social media sites either, I don’t see what the intent behind it is.

Why you said makes me think the number of votes is wholly irrelevent.
What is interesting or helpful is entirely subjective, it’s personal opinion. What is considered misinformation is entirely subjective. That makes me believe the voting count on a post means nothing for indicating the quality.
Considering how any majority of people typically react emotionally rather than have humility and respond with consistant logic, it seems personal opinion on a mass scale is an unreliable gage for quality of material.
The people downvoting you are proving your point a bit… Come on people, don’t downvote something just because you don’t agree. You can just not upvote it if you really want, but it’s adding to the discussion in a polite way which is what you want. Don’t discourage discussion and responses by downvoting them… Upvote the good stuff, downvote hate/spam, leave the rest alone.
It seems around 75% of Lemmy is pointless or is trash garbage.
People on here don’t want discourse and dialogue, they want passive entertainment that does not require brain power. A number of people on here clearly have a child’s mentality or stunted personality.
