For me a good solution would be to use machine learning, the same way spam filtering works for email.
A decentralized version of Reddit could actually be pretty simple, with a flooding P2P network coupled to some machine learning on each of the nodes.
The beauty is that anyone would be free to implement the content filtering measures the way they like it.
- hucker 14y agoHow would you discern what is popular and what is not(that is, the "upvotes" of reddit/HN)? Or did you mean only machine learning?
- joelthelion 14y agoPeople could optionally broadcast their pseudonymous votes, using cryptography to avoid impersonation. That would actually be a lot richer than the current "one vote is one vote" systems, since you could learn which people you tend to agree with.
