I mean if you limited votes purely to subscribers as a new community, you'd get nowhere because no post would trend for anyone new to find the community.
Hrm... might still be worth it?
Or switch a community only after it increases to a certain size or at least passes an age threshold.
Or only allow votes from "trusted" instances, where moderation practices are actually enforced and serial abusers are detected and banned.
I think it should be completely up to community owners. I have no problem with them being able to make that choice.
It is!:-)
