Is that even technically possible?
We COULD disable downvotes on the instance but that seems like a very cowardly thing to do :)
It appears to me that some users are being targetted with a downvote brigade...

True. Let em downvote, truth shall find the way to those who seek it.

It is a good metric to see if over time the downvotes decrease, then weknow more people are waking up to the necessity of Monero.

I am sure any user posting that is from this instance will be downvoted once the bot farms realize what this instance is about.

True, let em bring it on!

Yes, it could be bots, or really persistent humans.
I’ve noticed every monero post gets a automatic 3-5 downvotes.

Yeah, dude, you can spin up a Lemmy instance right now with however many accounts you want and federate it, votes federate too. Votes are basically useless on Lemmy as any sort of metric of popularity or anything. The problem will be worse than on reddit and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.

Now why the fuck is this post downvoted to negative?

Yeah, with lots of alts or bots. No different than reddit though. I said something against bitcoin on r/monero once and got 40 downvotes within minutes.
