Just a suggestion, bad posts get reported or removed, good faith posts get responses.

The paranoria/low effort trolling its creating is having a detrimental effect on discussion, better to just remove the ability for low effort trolls to effect conversation.

    i partially disagree, we might face a situation similar to hexbear where people reply to comments with just a downvote emoji and others would upvote that reply, essentially acting as a makeshift downvote button for that reply and thereby making the removal of downvotes redundant.

    then we just delete posts doing low effort posting
