(I think this is probably an okay place to post this, lmk if not)

Looking for collaborators to create a new instance of Lemmy. Among other things this instance will differ from existing ones by having a self-governing structure. Check out the very rough draft linked below to learn about my current vision for this community. Much on the doc will change based on other people’s ideas. This community’s goal is for it to belong to the community. No specific skills needed, but please read through the concept outline before getting in touch. Any type of contribution is amazing. You just have to be interested. Join me in creating a unique and innovative platform.

    Well much of that would have to be decided by the community but different anarchist ideas could be tested. One idea could be Regular Soritition of admins/mods who are in charge of removing posts that need to be removed, etc. All decisions could be debated by all members of the community who use consensus voting to override admin decisions or decide the direction the community goes in.

    As for abuse of the system, that could mean a lot of different things. Could you give me an example of what you’re referring to?

    (btw is the link working for you? others have said it’s broken but it works on my end)

      The link does work, it just takes absolutely forever to load, that’s probably why they thought it was broken

      My concern is abuse of democracy, people could make multiple accounts pretending to be one person and influence decisionmaking that way.

      We used to do this on the freefolk subreddit. We wouldn’t ban people or remove posts unless we had a majority decision from the users.
