Downvoting is an easier way to express a disagreement than writing a comment thus gets used more often. I am wondering if they should raise the number of points required to access this feature, it should probably be raised each year in fact.

But yeah some things you just can't say on HN without being downvoted: subcriptions are not evil, opt-out telemetry is fine, not everything needs to be open source, etc.
