    get rid of votes.

    they’re dumb and only exist to transform a forum into content.

    if lemmy isn’t for profit or doing ads, there’s no reason to transform a forum into content.

    so get rid of the votes.

      Nah. The voting system is a great way to filter out bullshit, spam, etc. It doesn’t always work, but the wisdom of the crowd is real.
