Good stuff. Like minds. I updated my "Fairness And Justice" with a little hierarchy table listing the admins > advisors (high trust) > citizenry (regulars) > fray (new & rare) > unruly (banned). I didn't mention it there, but had to d3rr and others that a colour coding system (ie. red yellow green) could easily indicate a user's status. Status gets no special privileges other than recognizing they're not unknown. (All of my ideas would go much better with illustrations.) Just as I look for red names from my /s/friends list, I could also avoid reading the fray. I was also thinking about being able to turn them on and off, and have some new ideas for the block function, but that's another story.

All of this is fascinating. If I were into woo I'd say the Universe is lining up for me. As my foggy ideas about Next-Gen Forums condense to crystallize it's good to be exposed to the problems of today to also imagine defensive strategies of tomorrow.

Why would /s/Coronavirus /s/VaccineSkepticism /s/ClimateSkeptics not be in /s/all?! How did you notice this?

I agree, moving posts would be nice. I think you typoed a couple times with /r/ instead of /s/.

Keywords = metatags. I've been asking for that since I arrived. My MetaVote system would replace the need for votes, metatags, NSFW, etc etc etc. ALL of it could be simplified while also deepened - and sooooo much more. Potentially very flexible and customizable, including icons. Also important but not centrally critical: word clouds.
