I think not having that will turn this into a tiktok or instagram.
I'm now trying out lemm.ee which has downvotes, and so far looks good.

Oh crap. Lemmy.one doesn't have downvotes - this is bad.
Without downvotes it is not easy to know which comments are controversial. I don't want to join another tiktok or instagram, I want to join something informative and thus a proxy of the value of the information (while not perfect) is critical.
I thought it was community specific, but looks like I can't downvote even on other instances.
I need to look for an alternative now.
In my experience so far, Lemmy.one has been the best. Fast, safe, responsive, and has a friendly community.
Edit: With a huge flaw that I discovered, that it does not allow you to downvote. I mean you can downvote the same post from other instances. Anyway this led me to lemm.ee. I don't know if that would be the final one I stick to, but so far it's looking good.
+1 also if you join beehaw, you don't get access to some instances such as lemmy.world.
They "defederated" them to create a "safe space", because lemmy.world does not ask you to write an essay on a set of questions (like beehaw does) when you join.

Yeah!
The thing is others can downvote you from other instances. Just you can't.
I don't know if lemm.ee takes the downvotes into account for the score, or ignores them. But from other instances you can downvote the same post or comment.
