We used to have downvotes until reactionaries used them to mass downvote trans users and coming out threads so that they weren't visible, then the mods revealed that they could track downvotes and banned all the reactionaries downvoting trans threads at the same time and guys were malding
This was incredible to watch. I was just lurking then, but this era, the addition of pronouns, and the requiring of content warnings (including on meat) was really illuminating to me. It really showed how strict moderation can make a space more welcoming and safe and also shift the culture in a really positive way.
