  > people here The best communities are ones that do not allow to be taken over by inorganic behavior. I think we can reasonably assume that not all AI front-page stuff is as interesting as other, non-AI stuff, yet here we are.

  You cannot downvote posts, which is an issue IMO.

          For posterity, you can only downvote comments, you can't downvote posts.

          It doesn't say anywhere in that document that you can downvote posts.

      For comments only, not posts. Downvoting comments will achieve nothing when it comes to reducing the prevalence of AI spam posts.

    You can flag posts though. Enough flags kills.
