This is just human behaviour though friend, I don’t think we can ever change that. People don’t want to see what they don’t want to see… it’s not necessarily a bad thing, and if you remove that power then you remove a lot of the motivation behind the platform.
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.
Yep… which is the challenge. The only word we have is ADHD, but really it’s so much more complex.
