n/Android, do we want to use Votes or Zaps?

Satellite.earth has implemented the ability to use Votes or Zaps to determine the popularity of the content inside individual communities. The choice is up to all of us.

If we pick votes, that means anyone, including non-bitcoiners, can participate. This mimics Reddit. If we pick zaps, that means people would need to have sats to boost a submission. This would mimic Stacker.news.

Both methods have pros and cons. I am a fan of being inclusive, but I'm also a fan of the value for value model of using Zaps. What are your thoughts?

I think it depends on the community behind the platform, Reddit was always good at self moderation of content through the voting system. Zaps would be the “awards” that Reddit has

People can also use that metric to decide whether the comment is valuable if they choose, I was always a fan of Reddit’s voting system though
