if you setup tags for a magazine on kbin, posts being published in the fediverse with those tags end up in the Microblog section. just check it.

The downvote and upvote mechanism on the threadiverse has nothing to do with democracy.
Democracy is not only build on public vote. Institutions are a real big part of it. Before we vote we debate. On the threadiverse the vote system is somehow shot cutting the debate part.
To make it obvious to everyone it could be simply coded in the app. You could choose a category when posting then choose a category as an user.
I had this conversation on mastodon a month ago:
NSFW is too broad for a tag. We should move on from it and redefined content warning tag specific to the content.

(Sorry I can’t find the convo my instance muted mastodon.social so posts are not being displayed. It’s a mess)
ok thanks for the precision
you could to type m/[email protected] after your kbin instance domain.
like to open [email protected]

edit : it seems that it doesn't work if the community is not federated yet.
kbin is another platform federated with lemmy and other platform from the fediverse. not the same project than lemmy.
I don't thing that your assumption is correct. One can open a magazine without the envy to control discourse and have censorship power.
So for me your thesis is therefor already flawed.
That being said I think that the lottery system is very interesting. I know some politic and apolitical groups who use it, and the ideal is appealing. I'm also very curious about how effective it is in reality. It may be counterintuitively worst than most classic systems of representation. (I personally don't think that it's a good system for justice.)
But as for right now, it's too early to try to implement such a things, in my opinion. But I welcome the conversation and I'm thankful that you started it.
I think that first, things need to settle down. We don't have yet moderating tools. And the website is still under construction.
A lottery is not a great idea because just picking up people randomly won't work, you need to know of the technical aspect of things work. And also some people may join with not good intent at all. So it could have catastrophic results.
I guess it will be pretty simple to come up with mod guiding rules, and if anyone has an issue with moderation you can simply contact the instance admin and settle things.
but as for right now we are still in the early stage of this website, so patience.
edit: just though about the comparison with jury duty, I guess you are talking about the USA in this example. a lot of countries doesn't have a jury of peer, and they are good reason for that.
What user-script are you using on safari?
Yes I’ll correct my post
