Everyone I have something very important to say about The Agora.
The Problem
Let me be super clear here to something people don't seem to understand about lemmy and the fediverse. Votes mean absolutely nothing. No less than nothing.
In the fediverse, anyone can open a instance, create as many users as they want and one person can easily vote 10,000 times. I'm serious. This is not hard to do.
Voting at best is a guide to what is entertaining.
As soon as you allow a incentive the vast majority of votes will be fake. They might already be mostly fake.
If you try to make any decision using votes as a guide someone WILL manipulate votes to control YOU.
One solution (think of others too!)
A counsel of trusted users.
The admin, top mods may set up a group to decide on who to ban and what instances to defederate from. You will not get it right 100% of the time but you also won't be controlled by one guy in his basement, running 4 instances and 1,000 alts.
Now i'm gonna go back to shit posting.
You might not want to look into most voting mechanisms used in representative democracies...
like apartheid? This is apartheid
Quite hyperbolic. Sorry but I don't see a point for further engagement, I don't see me your you benefitting from continuing this exchange. You don't want to engage nor reason, you like to deflect. Which is a fine strategy to look smart, but it doesn't further the discussion.
On a personal note; Find an instance that doesn't give you grievances.
1 person can have 100 alts making voting un fair. You have not provided a solution to the problem. You have not engaged at all.
You have to realize that there is no spoon
