It is easy to jump back and forward between this social media platform and the issue tracker. What do you think is incentivising the pitchforks you are complaining about - where do you think they want the angry mob to vent? The gamified issue tracker is where.

There is nothing "gamified" about the issue tracker; it's just an issue tracker. The ability to vote is useful or many reasons and something many issue trackers have, going back decades. And these type of submissions happen with e.g. the Firefox bugzilla tracker too, and some other things.
