Great idea - covers the two main areas of 'social' and 'mobile' while covering a journalism/news dilemma. How can you filter out things that are non-related? In reddit things that are down voted don't exactly get read or seen then very often. How will you filter out if someone posts content about something outlandish such as ducks? I understand that instead of removing bias, in a way you are supporting it by showing either left or right wing opinions. Will there be a way of creating more value in members? For example would trusted members votes be more important than others? This could be a way to improve some spam voting that is irrelevant. The social aspect of the application is great, forming balanced discussion at times that will have opinions from both sides, just make sure you definitely define the mobility of the application.

Thanks for your feedback. We are planning on implementing a Spam Report button which will help to minimise thinks like spam, shitposting, circlejerking, etc... We will have moderator to ensure threads are not out of control, however we don't plan on making any opinion worth more or less than any other.
