Isn't that what the vote system is? If the users are selecting low quality then what exactly?

  Then we are fucked. A quality platform must strive for more quality than what the average lurker, likely a bot, decides is worth reading. That’s how you get modern Reddit. Is the goal of this site to remain high-quality, or to rely on random, anonymous users to discern quality? Consider the possibility that the two options might be incompatible.

    It might come as a surprise to you, but "random anonymous users discerning quality" is exactly how this site operates and that's working pretty well.

      I beg to differ. It's a far cry from where it was a decade ago.

        I agree with you, though you’ll find other old users that will claim people have been moaning about the ‘decline in morals’ of this site since its inception
