There needs to be a limit on things you can upvote each month based on how much you give as a subscription. Each upvote should be worth at least 1 penny. If you agree to subscribe for $2 a month, that gives you a max of 100 upvotes (1 for each penny over the dollar server costs).
The more you donate, the more upvotes you get ($5 per month would give you 400 votes).
- pbhjpbhj 3y agoHow much do companies buy upvotes for on Reddit (or on HN?) at present? It would be interesting to compare that figure with any proposed pricing structure.

You will not see diverse content being upvoted with this model and you will encourage rampant corruption (ie Trump campaign being upvoted using right wing corporate funds/"donations" to promote it).
