A bit confusing. Presumably you mean “after giving an upvote”. In other words, to disincentivize upvotes.
Sounds like exactly the opposite of what would encourage friendly civil discourse: disincentivizing downvotes.
Slashdot got this right decades ago. No upvotes, no downvotes, just tags. Such as “informative”, “insightful”, “funny”, and a couple of more negative ones like (IIRC) “provocative” or “controversial”, which at least force you to say why you’re promoting or hating on someone’s good-faith contribution. But apparently that was all just too complex for the simpletons we really are.

If you want my approval, you need to make it as easy as possible.
Do you agree with me? Blink once for yes, twice for no.
