I can but as a user and not a moderator or admin it won’t make much difference. I also don’t expect mods (volunteers with a stack of work to do in front of them) to take the time to understand every user before reporting them, though it would be nice if there were a system that facilitated that!
For example, if users (not just comments) were able to be upvoted/downvoted, they could gain or lose “standing” in a community or on an instance. Depending on how much standing they have, their posts / comment would have a visibility in line with their standing. Good standing posts might be promoted slight more than regular posts. Poor standing posts might be shown to users half as much as regular posts. The scope of this would be per community, based on the users’s interaction with that community and the community’s opinion of the user.
That way, less of the moderation is placed on the human moderators. Those moderators will still be needed because no automated or crowd-sourced system is perfect but the goal would be to lean on moderators less and less.
Oh shi
