  But what's holding me back from voting using your username?

    I thought of a solution which I’ll post under the main thread.

    There’s a requirement for signing in with your google or facebook id - which should be safe enough, but will require new mail addresses (unless you’re hahhy to doxx yourself)

      Google or Facebook logins? Let’s not

      I would be fine with creating a burner gmail address for this purpose.

      Though this is perhaps more friction than we want for the voting process?

        After thinking about this for a few minutes, this is almost certainly over-complicating things.

        Why don’t we try disabling anonymous voting and inputting usernames? I think we can trust that people won’t try to game the system.
