Otherwise, what’s the point?
edit: A negative threshold - to hide stuff the community has decided is trash.
Then, no one would answer here ;p
If you make this an option new stuff wont get pushed to the top nearly as much.
So every post should have 0 votes?
Because if you hide posts without votes, none are gonna get shown
I was thinking it would work like reddit, where you can set a threshold in your preferences and posts below that vote total will be hidden from you. The default was something like -5 iirc.
Every post would still start with your one vote.
In some way, this intensive people again to downvote things they don’t agree with, that often creates a very toxic setting on Reddit. You see people in some communities swarming the downvote button to hide stuff they don’t agree with.
For now, most of the messages that are really bad should just be reported and deleted by the moderators. But I guess it is a lot of work now for the moderators to keep up with the high amount of new posts.
Yeah that would be a good way to recreate the echo chamber we love in reddit
