Hey! Thanks to the whole Reddit mess, I’ve discovered the fediverse and its increidible wonders and I’m lovin’ it :D
I’ve seen another post about karma, and after reading the comments, I can see there is a strong opinion against it (which I do share). I’d love to hear your opinions, what other method/s would you guys implement? If any ofc
What if we had a community standing metric that flips only between “good” and “bad.”
You get “bad standing” if the majority of your contributions in the last 6 months have a majority of downvotes than upvotes, but it resets after 6 months.
Everyone defaults to “good standing”.
This serves the purpose of a metric to filter out trolls or bad-faith actors, whilst making “karma farming” pointless.
