Do you also downvote publications when you don't understand them or only when you don't agree / they don't make you laugh / they don't interest you?

What are the reasons for a downvote?

Some instances have downvoting disabled. Beehaw.org for example.

They’re trying to encourage positive communication, so they have it turned off. Upvotes only.

And thats the reason why I chose another instance. I want to be able to downvote when people post terrible things. Who knows how long it will take for moderates to remove something, or if they will at all.
