Self moderating imageboard

8ch.net

The problem with this is it suppresses unpopular opinions.James Madison recognized this as "tyranny of the majority".

I don't think a single pixel can throw off nets working with high resolution images or ones trained to recognize noise. Regardless, I think you would need and obscene amount of CP to recognize it reliably enough for policing a website.

Finding a non-retarded mod would be a better idea.
Alternatively, host it on I2P or IPFS or anything else that requires miniscule effort to keep out normalfags.

If you don't explain what that means, it makes as much sense as "we need to abolish private property" and "we need a 4 sided triangle".
Like Zig Forums?
Any user can create a board and moderate it as they see fit, after all.


You're ignoring all the issues non-user forums have shown in practice.

How fucking new are you two?
You realize you're basically suggesting reddit but with autoban on enough downvotes?

It is very suspicious that such a system is not already operational. It would take a lot of stress off moderators. I'm thinking that spamming a board with cp is something that TPTB want to keep.
Until chatbots become indistinguishable from humans AI spam detectors could also help moderation and eventually allow for a very small team to run a site or even better a mirror of it, in the way NNTP implements it.

So, 08chan?

A way this could work:
Any user is allowed to create a list of posts. Each post in the list would have associated with it a series of tags, like "spam", "cp", "programming", "politics", etc. An individual could subscribe to any number of these lists, and give each list a weight. For each posts they encounter, their client would find the post in each list, and take the weighted average of the tags on the post. It would then filter out posts with weights above/below certain values. Eg they might like the ignore all posts with "spam" above .5, or if the wanted to look at programming posts, they might filter for posts with "programming" above .2.

note: this wouldn't be a democracy, and it doesn't require (though could be used alongside) federation of either the posts or the moderation. It could be implemented as a normal image board,

Yeah that's how real democracy functions - like absolute shit. That's by design.
