Reddit downvotes should require a reason instead of being anonymous disagreement buttons

Honestly, I kinda wish Reddit changed how downvotes worked.

Right now, people mostly use them as an I disagree’ button instead of what Reddiquette originally intended. Half the time, you can post something completely reasonable and still get buried just because the subreddit's mood is against you.

I almost feel like if you downvote someone, Reddit should pop up a small window to make you pick a reason first:

  • off-topic
  • misinformation
  • harassment
  • low effort etc

At least then people would know WHY they’re being downvoted instead of just getting silently dogpiled by subjective opinions and hivemind voting.

Made a Mekanism Fraction Splitter Chart fer youse guys eh

Was playing in my hardcore world there, bud, and wanted to automate my redstone alloy setup, but only wanted 1/4 going into Enriched Redstone, with the rest tossed in a chest fer later.

So I made a fraction splitter setup... then my brain went ‘well now I gotta do all of em eh’ 😭

So here’s all 9 Mekanism fraction splitters for youse guys.

All logistical sorters need:
• Round Robin
• Force Single Item
