anywhere with upvoting just leads to prevalence of one set of community supported opinions and alternative views being shouted down. pretty horrible development for independent thought

Cr

I wish Slashdot-style moderation had been adopted on other sites

A cap on how much stuff can be upvoted + a mechanism for informative (but controversial) stuff to be seen is ideal

But nobody does it like that

Zozo is pretty decent but there is a certain tendency for early bullshit subthreads to take a dominant position over late-coming positions that are more informed.

Also this place doesn't scale well at all

In the marketplace of ideas, shelf placement unfortunately matters. But on xo quality wins out over time. It's a messy imperfect process that is infinitely better than the alternatives (shitmodding, voting)

Second point is feature not bug

XO only works because there is low volume accompanied by an average IQ way higher than you get on other forums

If you're going to design a forum to cope with volume, you need things like voting and moderation

Everyone thinks roughly the same thing here. That's the difference.
