We did vote for using an automated tool, even, to protect against such instances: https://sh.itjust.works/post/338826

You can also see previous discussion in this post: [Vote] Clear the federation blacklist

Aye.

Edit: Oh wait, the community is deleted. Well, disregard my vote. It should stay gone.

Aye.

That stuff is illegal in many countries.

Aye.

I agree with others in the thread that we should be open to communicating with admins for false positives though.

If I could vote for more, I’d also vote for imaqtpie and annegreen.

I agree that order shouldn’t matter, but I strongly believe it would matter given the fact that everyone knows that upvoted posts appear at the top by default. The proposal doesn’t address downvoting, but it will happen anyway and affect the outcome because of the ordering issue. Discussions will happen inside the voting thread even if it shouldn’t happen, as well.

As much as I very much dislike the current political climate, and even though I’m aware that there is actual violence going on against those that don’t deserve it, I must say I disagree with your claim. Not every racist or sexist or homophobe is guilty of violence. We are a tribal species, but not every disagreement has to mean war. Additionally, I don’t think defederating communities at the first signs of any of these will achieve what you want.

To explain my vote, which remains the same after gaining clarification.

While I don’t think we should be too quick to defederate instances, I believe Lemmygrad is an important and symbolic one. Many folks including myself have concerns about even using Lemmy due to the political viewpoints involved in its creation. Defederating that particular instance says something, to those who join and to those who are a part of the community.

Got it. Thanks for the clarification!

I don’t know anything about Decidim yet, personally, but I think evaluating options like this is the way to go.

Nay.

Is this two different proposals in one, though?

Nay.

I agree duplicate accounts can and will be an issue, but I believe that donor-only voting is not the answer.

Although, if someone gives me a substantial donation, I might be convinced otherwise… /s

I agree they should be secret, but I can’t think of how they can be made that way cleanly without using a service external to Lemmy.

Personally I can’t think of how voting can be done cleanly within just Lemmy yet. It seems like there should be a special type of post developed for it.

I see a couple issues with your proposal. Actual discussion can either drown out the options to be voted, especially the ones that are being downvoted. Second, the snowball effect would be even worse than comment-based voting, as the earliest upvoted options would be on the top of the thread.

Nay

I don’t agree with the content there, but I’m not sure defederating is the answer we should reach for first. Let’s not be so trigger happy.

Aye
