That’s why downvote buttons exist?
No (and not downvoted) … it’s about controlling visibility.

My take: Upvote the stuff other people should see. Downvote the stuff that should have never been here at all. You don’t have to agree or disagree, you can even have no opinion. But if you find it worthwhile to others, upvote it. Detrimental, downvote it.

Maybe there should be four buttons:
- Upvote-good comment
- Upvote-agree
- Downvote-disagree
- Downvote-unhelpful/rude
Which could be used for more filtering options.
Or maybe a separate agreement/disagree metric. I wouldn’t mind seeing the consensus on a topic separate from the measure of usefulness.
