Invision Community has many reactions BTW.
AI-generated summary
The discussion is about adding downvotes to the platform, with A_B suggesting it as a feature. Jonathan5 points out that Invision Community has many reactions, including a possible downvote reaction, and provides links to relevant discussions on Meta Discourse. A_B clarifies that they want both upvotes and downvotes together, not just a replacement of the like icon. Simsnet interprets this as a desire for a Reddit-style system where downvoted topics are sent to the bottom. However, pfaffman argues that this approach is uncivilized. Canapin cites a post from codinghorror, stating that Discourse is ideologically opposed to downvoting and dislikes, and suggests looking for alternative software if downvoting is a hard requirement.

If you search here for “reactions” you’ll find a few interesting topics. The first is about an official plugin which I’m sure you could use for downvotes - you could have a 
reaction icon (see Discourse Reactions).
If you just want downvotes you could change the 
to (see Change the Like Icon to đź‘Ť)!

I think A B wants a Reddit-style system, where downvoted topics get sent to the bottom.
And that’s the opposite of civilized discussion.
Edit: I tried to find the link that @Canapin linked but couldn’t find it because I searched “down vote” as two words.
