Comment on Read-onlys are cancer. Post stuff you want to see.

But also downvoting is very useful as community moderation. I participate in some communities with regular, scummy spam posts that are technically off topic and not quite bannable, and I like that there’s a community mechanism to bury them.

Yeah I don’t think it’s entirely useless, it’s mostly useful for filtering out spam posts and unrelated stuff from communities.
Just on a comment/discussion level it feels like it’s not that great.
