Determine voting system #3

Open TGiles opened 5 years ago

TGiles commented 5 years ago

Need to determine a way for voting. The idea is to have a upvote/downvote system but using emojis. If too difficult or vague, a simple upvote/downvote system will work fine.

AustinTSchaffer commented 5 years ago

If we can set up an emoji rating, that'd be fun. Upvote vs downvote has been done so many times. I like GitHub's reaction system, but it doesn't translate clearly to a gripe-ranking.

TGiles commented 5 years ago

@AustinTSchaffer one of the concerns I have is the most reacted posts getting at the top, so new gripes don't get attention. However, if we could some how come up with a ranking based on reactions would be cool. Open to suggestions.

cameronstinson4 commented 5 years ago

I think the general consensus was allowing users to rate gripes with any of our curated emojis, and then taking the sum of all emoji reactions to rank gripes.

There will be another story about gripe relevance and how to curate the top list.

Votes will be stored in session storage (vulnerable to users deleting their storage and revoting)

So we're not gonna set up a user system? Just wondering, since it'll be important for the DB design.

@AustinTSchaffer yeah, want to keep the system anonymous if possible. Definitely brings in some challenges which I've (hopefully) have created tickets to address
