What kinds of technological solutions are you thinking of?
Feel free to talk about it later if the ideas aren’t ready for public presentation yet. In general I’m concerned that criticism is important, truth-seeking is hard to separate from status-seeking (authors can be self-deceived as easily as commenters about their judgments/motivations), and whatever solution we adopt not cause more harm than good through unintended side effects.
I touched upon this in a recent meta post, although in a different context. (Basically, I expect small/big upvote distinctions to help with this issue, at least somewhat, while also being positive from a truthseeking perspective. Later on I’ll write up clearer thoughts on why I’m expecting this to help)
