Yes, I've noticed that even here (on Lemmy), there's been some kind of unfounded downvote culture emerging. I'm not saying it's unfounded in this case, btw. Of course, not everything is to everyone's taste, but generally, there are plenty of downvotes on very high-quality and relevant content. I remember when downvotes were a great way to quickly filter out low-quality content. But now, I'm not so sure.
It seems a bit "lame" that a plugin for a project "fails" if it's not inherently bad, but the project itself is disliked by someone, but okay, it is what it is.
By the way, thanks if you think this is cool. I would definitely love to hear your opinion if you decide to try the extension eventually.
