I take issue with this voting system, as it will be skewed in favour of a narrow win for the upvote result.
Downvoting the post decreases visibility in most sorting algorithms. I would be curious to see the results if the upvote and downvote options were reversed.
Until Lemmy implements polls, a better method would have been to have two comments under this post which would be voted on, rather than making the post itself the poll.
Instances such as mine have blocked downvotes anyway. This system is definitely flawed.
I don't think lemmy has comment pinning (but i could be wrong) and that will cause the down vote comment to sink and it will cause more confusion. Besides this post is pinned .
