I mean i sort by active, maybe it's just me who doesn't mind about shit takes, though i hold out that as someone with a lot of controversial anarchist takes i can attest that dogpiling was already a thing when downvotes were here, it just manifested in downvotes. Though there was an idea i liked suggested in the same c/userunion thread that downvotes should be tied to comments, so you actually have to express why the take is bad. I don't know what it would take to develop it, i'm just throwing things around.
