Interesting idea. But the voting will fail for reasons already stated. And somehow your idea sounds like the "old" Google+ from before 2018(?). Take a look at how Usenet worked (and still works, although stuttering) it had filters in its newsreaders to select postings by certain people or topics and it had killfiles to hide postings by certain people or for certain topics. Killfile entries where either permanent or time limited. Your centralized site could easily evaluate your reader's killfiles to see what or whom users dislike (I.e. implicitely voting with their kill file) Intro to various newsreaders: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rn_(newsreader) https://www.nndev.org/ https://slrn.info/
