At a glance, I don’t see a problem. Isn’t social media already a system for rating social credit?
I think the problem with social credit scores is when they’re mandatory and can limit things like housing access. Filtering posts on opt-in social networks just sounds like a reasonable tool for moderating decentralized platforms.
The things he’s complaining about all seem like good features for a group with voluntary membership. Its only when membership is compulsory that those kinds of things become bad.
The piefed frontend implemented a social credit score
@RedWizard@hexbear.net reviewed the code base here: https://lemmy.ml/post/42415919/23662293
Imo it’s very rich because their community is crying about the nonexistent social score in china and then they do this lol
What’s even better is there isn’t a way to turn if off, only hide it with css
Frontend?
Thanks for clarifying.

I mean most cults have voluntary membership too, it doesn’t make the techniques of social control they employ any less harmful
Only that the implementation of the “good features” is also laughable and nothing that moderation wasn’t able to solve
