Looks like it’s still in the planning stages. But looks like a cool project.

    I am not catloaf but I have a problem with people literally combing vote logs to call users out in comments. That’s toxic verging on obsessive.

    Absolutely not the way to act as the face of a project. It accomplishes nothing besides making you look incredibly petty and dissuades people from supporting your work.

      No need to comb anything. Instance admins get to see who voted on any item, right in the UI. And it’s been going for months: if I have a comment or post with a single downvoter, 90% of the cases it’s my friend here.

        It’s so weird to keep track of that, and petty on both sides if it has been happening for months like you say.

        I also think you are placing way too high importance on vote counts, and specifically pinging people is not the way to handle your disapproval.

          They have publicy called out other downvoters before, not the first time. Pretty sure they were not “repeat offenders” (as apparently was also not really the case here).

          They don’t seem emotionally stable enough for me to trust them to admin anything i’d use.

          No, I do not care about the counts, karma or anything like this. I just like to keep track of repeat, serial downvoters that do not participate in the discussion and resort to passive-aggressive behavior.

              Yes, I don’t mind dealing with conflict. People being assertive, and even aggressive when arguing their point? All fine by me. As long as you are willing to put yourself out there when criticizing/attacking someone, I can respect you. That does go out the window when people hide themselves behind a mob or “private” voting.
