A popular way of dealing with discussions, and familiar to most people, I assume. As far as I see it, adding a poll system to Lemmy is a good way to enhance user engagement. I’m not really aware if this has been a topic before or not, tried looking it up but didn’t see much juice on the topic, so thought I’d spark it up.
Personally would like to see polls, but I’m sure there are people who don’t want it too. Let me know your thoughts 🌻
One way encryption, same way passwords are stored.
Would that work to obfuscate up/downvotes in general?
Potentially, but any amount of obfuscation opens up the system to abuse.
If you trust the server hosting the community to handle all encryption, it’s trivial for the admin to disable.
If you trust the server sending the vote, then it’s trivial for a server admin to game the system and send hundreds of votes.
