RE: The Great Downvote Debate...
I feel like anonymous downvoting would be another can of worms to deal with but, I absolutely agree with you @sepracore, that minnows do not use downvoting because of the fear of retaliation and having witnessed whales unleash bot downvoting platoons on minnows who crossed them (whether on purpose or sometimes even accidentally or unknowingly).
The downvoting tool (as it currently exists) is the chief reason why Steemit is not my favorite platform to share.
I agree that anonymous downvoting is not ideal but I just don’t see any other way.
Minnows should not downvote, it does not make sense to waste vp on what literally has so little impact that it won't even reflect in the dollar amount. That's not who should be doing the policing, the policing should almost be exclusively handled by large accounts, dolphins and higher.
