Vote manipulation is getting more common. Some recent examples:
While the accounts were banned, the malicious voting activity stuck around.
Should admins have the ability to discard votes, and if so, which admins? Should community mods have that ability? Can you think of any ways that tools like this could be abused?
It’s a shame honestly, I feel like Piefed without up/downvotes at all would work better. No algorithm, thanks.
https://piefed.blahaj.zone/ already has downvotes disabled, disabling the reputation warning features as well (you can’t get bad attitude if you can’t give downvotes)
Piefed doesn’t incorporate any of this into an algorithm.
Eh, it still has some good things and in theory since this is FOSS someone could just, like, fork it and remove the whole shadow cabal moderation thingy.
