Moderation is already available on SN though? I've never played with it because I despise the thing.
What would you think of a system where territory owners had the ability to turn off downzaps and boosts in their own territory?
I think that that can work from a territory (territory=community) perspective, but not for the front-page (sn=community) per se. Which, iirc, was also the main issue of the trust system, where the front-page was k00bified - to my pleasure, but surely to the Sports-stacker's irritation.
I've never read Reddit r/all (at least i think that that's the thing that was comparable to SN's frontpage) or used the X feed outside of what I followed, because it's unbearably mundane and stupid. I think that SN is currently too small for going this way where territories get autonomy - I went through the full monthly top stacker list yesterday and there are around 1000 MAU, and in terms of major economic significance we're talking about some 30-50 stackers. That's not enough to break up into smaller communities right now because it will make everything homogenous.
Now... I like seeing top content I wouldn't subscribe to per se from ~the_stacker_muse or ~culture or ~Education on the front page. I've learned about and from awesome stackers that hang in such territories that I normally would have much less exposure to. I don't want to lose that (even though, some of these people are now suppressed, so that's at risk at the current state too, and it will likely be lost at scale) if I'm honest, but those territories that will remove boosts and downzaps unilaterally will not rank as high on the front-page, and I expect that the people I sympathize with would eventually be driven to this (as they're also the ones being silenced right now.)
