It's almost exactly a copy of reddit issues but most people that use reddit haven't heard about it.

because reddit actively prevents promotion of the fediverse and its platforms.

if you want to help, convince an entire sub to move their community to the fediverse. we need all the people we can to realize they do not need reddits walled garden.

also, keep in mind lemmy.world is one site of hundreds and only 1 of dozens of platforms that intercommunicate. different platforms offer different features.

im using https://moist.catsweat.com/ which runs the mbin platform. no lemmy involved, but i can see and respond do your post. check out https://fedidb.com/

for example heres my interface hovering your account shows something like karma and includes downvotes;
