Ill be honest, at first I was antagonistic because I felt that removing downvoting was just sheltering people from the harsh reality that their art just plain sucks. While I still think downvoting is a form of critisism Ill concede that its not very constructive criticism.
I still feel like this hide feature is coddling the more delicate flowers on this site but A) Real life will catch up to them soon enough anyway and B) Giving someone the option to hide something that triggers them doesnt effect my experience on the site.
Thanks for your hard work in making this site the best it can be guys!
