On one hand, I hate that there’s now even more explicit status stratification on LW. Only special moderator-approved people get the omega tags and votes. This sucks. Please at least hide our lack of worth from us rather than putting it in our face.
From another view, I kind of like the vision (if it becomes that) of LW as an aggregate of a number of special-purpose topics—AI alignment, consciousness philosophy, EA, community-building, etc. Being able to select the topics one is interested in and see them all in one place in one system would be nifty.
