- crowbahr 9y agoSure while "Voat" is an alternative they're both centralized. I'm meaning decentralized reddit. Servers as subreddits, federated multi-reddits, only registered server accounts can vote on certain pieces, server by server moderation etc.
- e1ven 9y agoI had written a mostly functional system based around exchanging gpg-signed anonymous messages, usenet style a few years ago, with distributed voting, opt-in moderation, and server federation. https://github.com/e1ven/tavern https://github.com/e1ven/tavern I eventually moved on because I couldn't figure out how to solve some of the social problems, but I still think something like that could work out.
- webmaven 9y agoDo you have a document (or a set of issues) describing the social problems you were trying to solve? They may have already been solved, in some other context.
