    the biggest question would be how to defend it from spammers and corporations with potentially much more money.

      One answer that’s proven to work is by involving a lot of people’s labor in the editorial/curation process. Similar to how posting/commenting/voting/moderation work on Lemmy, how it’s worked on Reddit and other human-driven platforms. Corporations have proven on multiple occasions that paying for this labor is not feasible and so a system that depends on it should be corpo-resistant or capital-resistant.

        well reddit did that and was full of shills and bots, vote manipulation, and more, this approach completely failed for them.

        and they do put a lot of money into it.
