    No I was not sarcastic. So now i am trying to read your paper and i think that it is above my knowledge level.

    As a layman i had the intuition that instead of having two accounts as i proposed for voting and commenting which was implemented by @rimu, we might have had something like blockchain or filecoin or some coin that would represent voting power and that would be based on our commenting value… so that coin would have been an intermediary to make voting anonymous.

    Finally i know enough about science that i know that i don’t know much.

    Edit : after a rapid overview of the article i would say that this method :
    “Blind Signature-Based e-Voting”
    would be most appropriate to our social media voting and i noticed the work they have done is more targeting national elections where the outcome is much more important.

    @rimu@piefed.social did great on my simple idea and this is very nice to know. He did not implement his other idea of having a pool of available robots that would vote one time each for each one vote of each one user(s) … also I thought it might be implemented in the frontend but he did implement it in the backend.

    i did not say before but i was also thinking about complex mechanisms involving some kind of coin that would represent voting power that could be spent when voting or accumulated maybe with some loss of value with time … but then i read about the many research paper that were published about such things … in conclusion i believe we will see many other iterations of such social media.

    thanks for the feedback 😌
