For me flair is probably the most important. I follow a lot of organized sports and being able to quickly identify which team someone supports helps the conversation move along without having to write “as a fan of…” in every single comment. And this isn’t a like talking shit, sports guy thing. It’s genuinely extremely useful for broadening the depth of the conversation.

Also not having to scroll to find the reply box. Super annoying. Super easy fix.

That being said I’m all in on kbin. Deleted Reddit. Not going back.

    but if you interact with me I’d like to know. So where do you draw the line? or maybe I don’t understand you correctly.

    I don’t want to be advocating to less privacy, so feel free to correct me, but just by interacting with each other right now, without using the upvote and downvote system, we are already giving information to potential scrappers no? The solution would be to remove upvote and downvote all together then?

    I like how favorite works on mastodon. we could achieve the same on kbin?

      Could it be possible to have two kinds of boosts, anon boost or tracked boost? The standard default could be anon with a hover option for tracked, with the default being a setting that can be flipped.

        as for now boosts and upvotes on kbin works like boost and favorite on mastodon. I think that it’s good to keep this compatibility.

        in my option if we can’t take responsibility of our action, be called by our name for them, we shouldn’t act. we need to address some privacy aspect tho, regarding external party. but between to users I welcome this transparency.
