Pretty interesting approach and getting closer to my proposal here: https://derekbrown.xyz/decentralizing-moderation Not sure how I feel about all votes being equal, though, and not taking into account reputation/contribution. Interesting experiment, will be following along. Well done, @depatchedmode!

Ayyyy! Thanks for the nod. Skimmed your article and will give it a deeper think. We basically agree! Not all votes will be equal in the counting for sure. I'll generate a reputation graph (daily?), where your judgement's impact will be proportional to your current rating. Actioning the graph is a gradient opt-in.

Primary precedent for the reputation graph is gonna be EigenTrust. But v0 will be my dumb-dumb "just a designer" interpretation of it.

Another thing I'm planning on is that whether or not your vote counts at all may be throttled by some threshold of your participation. And judgements of any individual cast shouldn't count until there's some kind of quorum. But to start, blind acceptance of all data points!

1/2 Yep, we basically agree on all points. EigenTrust is a great starting point. My primary thesis here is that reputation (EigenTrust++) & consensus (a quorum of sorts, as you call it) are the building blocks of decentralized moderation.

2/2 If I'm understanding your thinking, I'd caution against participation thresholding. In our experience at Bunches, moderation is on an "as-needed" basis, so rewarding those who "moderate the most" could actually allow for a form of attack on the mechanism. We're working through this now - happy to chat about it!

Ah, I was thinking a floor threshold. As in, your vote doesn't count at all until you've participated in some tbd way. But again, these are just levers that should be exposed to the community ... somehow. And yeah, once I'm through this sprint, let's chat! Will you be in Denver?

Ah yeah, that makes total sense. Participation then is basically just an input into the reputation component (has casted X times, follows/followed-by Y or more people, etc.). Yes, the ideal is that these levers are configurable per context (Farcaster's channels, for example). Not Denver, but thinking about FarCon.
