In addition to any score threshold you set in the preferences, posts you downvoted will not show up on the front page.

(this seems like a nice feature by the way, it reduces the attention people pay to content they don't like, which should reduce negative comments and arguments)

Edit: hum, seems this is actually an option one can set in the preferences, maybe I set it and nobody alse did.

It's a really bad feature, in that it encourages echo chamber behavior- people who opt out in one way or another are more likely to disagree.

I don't see that happen, but in my prefs I have "Don't show articles after i've disliked them" unchecked.
