Downvotes are to display disagreement. So if I disagree, I downvote.

Edit: I think people have misunderstood my point. What you use the button for isn't relevant here... The button is for voting whether you like or dislike something. If you don't find something interesting, you don't vote, and if it seems Irrelevant, you invoke the Moderators.

    Interesting, I use them for relevancy/irrelevancy to the discussion

    Understandable. Although, I think the report features are usually in place for such actions, right?

    Like, if my comment makes no sense under a certain post, or if my post is irrelevant to the community, then wouldn't reporting it to the mods be the more logical action than just downvoting?

    Why do you think the downvote button exists? For funsies? Sorry we aren't saving you're precious feelings by using one of the fundamental features of the website
