Paywalled.

On a different subject, why would someone downvote a one-word comment that accurately describes what the content is behind?

Because some of us have fat fingers and accidentally downvote when we scroll on mobile.

One of the things I liked about reddit was that, since it saved downvoted posts, I could go through the list every once in a while and undownvote the accidents.

Can't do that here though, and I sometimes notice posts or comments I've accidentally downvoted.

Anyway, people shouldn't care so much, we don't have a karma system or the like here anyways, so why does it matter?

What client are you using? I can browse both upvoted and downvoted comments in Voyager

I'm using eternity, which hasn't received any updates, on my phone, and the default lemmy web interface on my computer.

Maybe I need to try some other options.
