I‘m realizing one of the main problems with Lemmy is that this crap isn‘t deleted by mods and downvotes are the same as upvotes in terms of being pushed to the front page it seems. We can‘t do anything against this nonsense except ignoring it.

downvotes are the same as upvotes in terms of being pushed to the front page it seems.

Unless you’re sorting by controversial, no they aren’t.

Open up a new community with stricter moderation. That’s the point of a platform like Lemmy.

  No, that’s not the point of a platform like Lemmy, because you can do exactly that on a platform like Reddit too.
  
  And stylizing fragmentation as something desireable is a pretty bad take.

Add to that that some major instances have disabled downvoting, which actively disables people’s ability to filter stuff like that by voting.
