I'm super impressed by the features I'm discovering using Piefed! I'm going to be experimenting a lot with the keyword filter particularly. Here are some ideas we might add to make Piefed even better. Share you own in the replies.

Some of these options where too long to make it a poll.

Any instance implementing this is going to be defederated quickly by other instances due to the ease of vote manipulation.

One voting agent per user. Banning the voting agent is as easy as banning the user. There is literally no difference here in terms of combatting vote manipulation besides the "feels" of not knowing a particular text string. This is literally just politics and has no basis in any real problem. I could just as easily make my own second "voting user." The only difference is the ergonomics of that workflow.

"Vote manipulation" doesn't even matter since there is no karma. Just remove down votes from rank and engagement metrics. Problem solved. I really cannot believe how much y'all are twisting yourselves in circles to make this seem like a bad idea. Again, fuck the politics, I thought we were focused on the tech?
