Yeah I have no idea what is happening to HN lately, a lot of posts that add information are being downvoted. I personally feel like getting rid of the downvote button altogether would be a great step forward, since we already have the flag button.
And its happening again.

Some users, such as me, have no downvote button. Maybe it is an existing account setting that could be used more frequently.
There is a certain karma threshold before you can downvote.
