Hmm interesting question never thought about it, maybe both/varies from post to post
There's some part of my brain that applies display:none to the upvote/downvote function on every platform.
So if I don't vote on your content it's not because I hate it. My brain is just wired to automatically edit out anything that's not content. Mostly this means ads, but voting features seem to have been caught in the net too.
I feel this very much, but yet I've upvoted you... The brain is weird.
And I downvoted because "I have special eyes" posts are cringe.
Taste my righteous wrath and because I can do it with one click without explaining why means I don't need to and the internet is on my side. Feels like the implicit meaning when I'm downvoted.
The latter. If it's just disagreement a quick reply is best, and sometimes it gets worked out just fine.
