We need that slashdot system of vote + mark “insightful”, “flamebait”, “funny”, etc etc. add more categories as necessary so posts can be scored on multiple axes.
Sounds good to me, as long as there’s a way for instances/users to disable those filters. Since they’re more in-depth/granular, I suspect engagement with them would be lower, so there’s a higher risk of a smaller minority using it to dictate the conversation. But I’d definitely be interested in seeing that in action. It could be really helpful for giving people tools to shape their feed.
