Casual reminder that Piefed allows to limit downvotes to people subscribed to a community (lemmy.zip)

Seems like the downvote debate got another round on https://lemmy.zip/post/47242086/21088009 , so this could be useful

My totally uneducated guess is that it works similarly to how instances with disabled downvotes work. The downvotes should work on the instances where they were issued. But they wouldn't federate to other instances.

My instance has a few communities with subscriber only downvotes and that's the result I've seen.
