RE: Steemit Feature Request: We need to have a "Dislike" button separate from "Flags" for better online interactions (According to Game design Wisdom)
Yes. It's doubly weighted. You can't dislike someone's post without robbing them of money, and you also can't dislike a post without essentially taking money from yourself or the things you like. We should all, as consumers, have the ability to take something down from the trending list without taking the rewards away from the author. Just because I think something is crappy content, doesn't mean it's spam or that the author should have money taken away.
A "Dislike" button can communicate that a certain use thinks your content is crap without financial harm (or minimal/symbolic financial harm) and create a UX that consider flags to be something reserved for clear violations of NAP like plagiarism, spam, fraud etc.
