RE: Steemit.com GitHub Report Development Updates

in #steemit • 8 years ago (edited)

I see hiding how many flags a post has received as a lost. Losing valuable information isn't a plus. This is my opinion. I know the information will still be available else where but how information is displayed is also part of what make valuable information.

    I see your point. Here are the notes from the pull request:

    The main argument against this change will be that users can no longer easily identify posts that have been flagged for abusive reasons. While this is true, the current implementation of the flag/downvote at a blockchain level does not provide a good means to do this without also singling out content that has been downvoted for non-abusive reasons. Users that are interested in fighting abuse can use other interfaces (such as steemd or the steemit.chat abuse channel) for this purpose, while regular users will just be presented with the "vote list" (showing the top 20 upvotes/downvotes) and pending post reward.
