I am using the official lemmy Android client, is there is a way or a third party client that at least fetch downvotes from .world or any other instance?

I am asking because it’s very weird to not be able to see posts score or the number of downvotes a post has. Feels very YouTubeish move.

Any solution here?

    Reddthat has downvotes turned off, only upvotes are recorded on your instance. Jerboa (if that’s the client you’re talking about), has options to display downvotes as a percentage, up and down or net score only. Those options will only function if your instance records downvotes.

    You can’t just get scores from other instances, that’s not how that works. The scores shown from each instances varies slightly due to different instances being linked. That’s helpful because if an egotistical admin spins up an instance with 5000 self-made accounts that all upvote a post that admin made, defederating that instance will remove the stuffed votes from the score.

      Oh man, that sucks for me.

      I guess there is no perfect instance that I can use.
