But we don't have a front page so /v/all kind of becomes that. Still don't think subs should be rewarded for getting rid of downvotes.

there totally is a frontpage. If you go to voat.co without any subs it is a different list of subs to /v/all

fundamentally, a post still needs to be vetted by both mods and the community. it still need upvotes for it to appear on /all. it's less about "rewarding" good posts with making sure content is easily viewable.

I think perhaps the issue here is a difference in perspective on the "power" of not having downvotes. has there been issues with specifically not having downvotes in the past?

Yeah, from what I understand, there were a few users who would upvote stupid crap to the frontpage that couldn't be downvoted (because they set the upper limit to like 10000 upvotes) With how small the userbase is, a post with 3 upvotes in 10 mins would sit at the top of /all. And then can't be downvoted down.

That is my frontpage, totally different than what I am talking about, that only includes my subs.
