I hated downvotes on Reddit because like merely 5 would silence all anti honeymoon's sentiment. This place, your can have a million downvotes but the comment is still there so i just count em as engagement points. Someone felt strongly, that means i wrote something worth reading in a way

Also, not having a total karma count kinda makes up/down vote ratio on any individual comment or post irrelevant

This depends on your client. A lot of them hide responses in the same way Reddit did.

That's because -5 was the default threshold for a comment being automatically hidden on reddit. Most people never bothered to change the setting.

Ah i didn't know it could be changed either

I can't even see downvotes on here and I quite like it. If someone can't be bothered to actually tell me why I'm wrong I don't care much about their opinion anyway.
