This is why we need downvotes...
Well that would just turn into a free money button, abused by all...
What we need is a seperate reputation score, not censorship.
Of course a proper system would allow you to block seeing anyone with a reputation below your chosen threshold.

how about a wall of shame. so that a specific comment can be put there for eternity
reply
one sites wall of shame is another trolls hall of fame!
I hope you likeed my poem, and I also hope it helps you understand that your proposal is probably not the right solution for internet trolls
reply
why "free money button"?
yes, i think individual blocking is the way to go.
reply
Well if you pay money to vote up, clearly a vote down would be to receive money.
reply
Haha, I see. That would be hilarious.
You essentially stake your money on your comment and people can slash you if they don't like you
reply
Unless the slashing sends the sats to SN devs

I created a PR. Am I a SN dev now too?

needs to be merged

I am not sure if downvotes are what we need here
I dislike that the downvote button disappeared on YT videos since it was helpful to see dislike counts on videos.
But I also don't like when comments get harder to read like on HN or people just downvote because they don't like the opinion of others (reddit comes to my mind there). They could just as well just not upvote.
You aren't going to change a person's opinion by downvoting them. So why downvote them? What does it achieve?
Just throwing in my 2 sats here
reply
Yeah you're right, it was a bit of a kneejerk comment. I'm not sure what the right solution is.
reply
I would prefer to be able to just block these people
reply
I would prefer the option to block someone. I would pay sats to permanently not see threads/posts from select users.
