Clearly it’s one point three-twenty em-bee.

Well it got rid of the ability of people to downvote and potentially silence (by pushing them off the front page) any posts made by trans users, so I’d say yeah.

FWIW Hexbear disabled downvotes entirely (after a scandal where an audit revealed that certain users were exclusively downvoting posts of trans users) and it doesn’t seem to have resulted in any problems.

We also have a very strict moderation policy though, so this may not be universally applicable.

Nyaa.si still up, all is well
