Should admins have the ability to discard votes, and if so, which admins? Should community mods have that ability? Can you think of any ways that tools like this could be abused?

Because at least on piefed you get punished if downvoted too much

Yes piefed is known to exact CCP-style hidden moderation.

It's a shame honestly, I feel like Piefed without up/downvotes at all would work better. No algorithm, thanks.

Piefed doesn't incorporate any of this into an algorithm.

Eh, it still has some good things and in theory since this is FOSS someone could just, like, fork it and remove the whole shadow cabal moderation thingy.
