It registered, I see the downvote. The reason you don’t see downvotes on most comments is that most people here don’t give them out for no reason, so there just aren’t any to display.
Pretty sure the negative downvotes weren’t intentional manipulation, my best guess was some cross-federation code interacting weirdly. Though it’s fixed now anyway, you responded to a comment that was 17 days old.
Yes. However you can install a PWA (progressive web app) via chrome and firefox (perhaps other browsers but those are the ones I use). The PWA allows you to use lemmy when logged into your instance of choice and it acts like a mobile app. To install, go yo your instance in a browser, then check our options. For chrome, it says add to home screen. I believe firefox it says install app.
I havent looked at code, so i can only guess. Just before you looked at it, i clicked downvote. I realise my mistake and unclick/click it again. The local server we’re browsing on (Server A) sends the downvote to the server the post was made on(Server B), but it also temporarily adjusts it local figure for a while until it can refresh from the server the post was made on. Last it knew server B had a tally at 0 downvotes, so it goes negative. (If Server A had a downvote figure of 4, the same process would have shown 3 to you)
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !futurama@lemmy.world
For all things Futurama
Rule 1: Don’t be a jerkwad!
Rule 2: Alternate video links to be linked in a comment, below the original video.
First time I’ve seen a comment so good that not only does it get upvotes, it has a negative number of downvotes,
Anyone know how that is even possible?
I downvoted you. No one else had any downvotes; please let me know if it registered. I don’t want vote fuckery like they have on reddit.

Thanks for the reply
Which app is that?
It looks like the lemmy.world website, not an app.
Ahh ok

I guess they show upvotes and downvotes instead of net upvotes/downvotes.
