    There has to be an algorithm. A crowdsourced wisdom. Individuals can’t be trusted. From spez to the very mods here.

      Whenever I hear someone suggest “an algorithm” without elaborating further, I’m usually correct in presuming that it makes as much sense as “a wizard will use magic”. The other times it’s usually someone suggesting blockchain. Sometimes it’s both.

      Or, hear me out, collaboration across networks. That’s what lemmy does. And it’s nothing new.
