Great thread. My two cents.

One piece of reality seems to be that this site is working well enough to cause lots of stress on some persons. ie the said to be expensive bots hammering voat.

It could be the chaos that we suffer through, that is actually working in our benefit. The treads at present get lost so fast, they need to be carried forward in the minds of those who are here because they care for the children. Our collective memory ability is building. A hive mind is happening.

Chaos is a creative space. Lets think carefully before changing the recipe.

Awesome. @Vindicator Was hoping you would understand. My point could be put, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

I'm trying to puzzle through how to have fewer topic headings and also accommodate how things tend to branch over time. New insights often create a need to start over. But when you do start afresh, old work well done can be lost. Mostly haste is waste, I wish for a maximum word limit per writer also. Everybody gets like 1000 words per week or 100,000 but a limit. Any post counts 100 words lost to avoid bot type frequency.

If comment threads didn't need to be opened, that would help. What says 1 reply often hides a gem of a longer conversation.

I see some folks posting several new topics in one day, that's a problem, It's an abuse of our attention. How about one a day with a three a week maximum? I'm a comment-er only, It works for me. I like the view from the peanut gallery. Up here I don't worry about the Rules.

The user would need to ping a mod and request one. But...we can have up to TWENTY flairs now on the new platform.

I don't know. That would be a question for v/voatdev. You might be able to guestimate the answer, though, by looking at HOT and examining the number/post time/frequency of comments.
