Which - to me - is a good thing.

Do not know what downvotes are.

Ideally we would have different buttons for this like the forums of old, but no one seems interested in that nowadays.

What buttons were them?

Instead of up/down buttons you would have a set of buttons such as "Agree", "Disagree", "Funny", "Useful", etcetera. The only website I know of that still uses these is Ravelry.

Ahh, that is a neat thought. Thanks for elaborating and sharing.
