This post discusses suicides and psychosis of named people. I think it’s an inappropriate place to experiment with a new voting system. I think you could choose a less weighty post for initial experiments.
Also, I don’t get the impression that this experiment was done with jessicata’s explicit agreement, and I’m worried that this post is being singled out for special treatment because of its content.
We did ask Jessica first whether she would want to participate in the experiment. Also, the reason why we want to experiment with additional voting systems is because specifically threads like this seem like they kind of tend to go badly using our current voting system, and switching it out is an attempt at making them go better, in a way that I think Jessica also wants.
