To prevent fracturing of our instance and retaliation against users for votes you don’t agree with.

    My suggestion here would allow for this:

    The current aye/nay system is cluttered and clunky. How about we allow comments in [discussion] posts and then have a separate [vote] post with a single comment for each option so people can choose up/down/abstain? Then nobody has to count anything, human or bot, or worry about typos, formatting, sarcasm, etc.

    I also propose a minimum of 3 days, maximum of 1 week per each [vote], no time limits for discussion. You can choose when to start the official [vote] after discussion starts.

      This is a fantastic idea. Not sure about the time limits but the [vote] post seems like it would work really well

      We’re just about to agree on the condition that only members of this instance should be allowed to vote. I am afraid that your proposal might not be compatible with that at the moment…
