Just venting here. It's a very low traffic community for a sports team, with announcements from that team's own website posted to the community. And people have to come in and vote it down. ๐Ÿ˜

Downvotes change the visibility of posts. If I'm subscribed to a community and non-subscribers are making it less likely that I'll see the very relevant post to the community I'm subscribed to, that's not meaningless, it's censorship.
