|
|

|
|
|
- How does voting work? Should we go back to the old way of showing up and downvote counts? Or just a score?
|

|
|
|
- Decide on tech to be used
|
|
|
|
|
- Backend: Actix, Diesel.
|
|
|
|
|
- Frontend: inferno, typescript and bootstrap for now.
|
2019-02-14 17:36:53 +00:00
|
|
|
- Should it allow bots?
|
2019-02-15 18:27:37 +00:00
|
|
|
- Should the comments / votes be static, or feel like a chat, like [flowchat?](https://flow-chat.com).
