I’ve just started looking at Decidim, so this may be a case of everything looking like the nail to its hammer, but, given all the posts about the mechanics of governing this instance already, I wondered whether considering a separate platform specifically designed to address many of these governance-related problems (as I understand it – again, early days) might be in order.
Decidim might actually be more akin to a sledgehammer in this case, but I figured the point still has merit, as a discussion. There must be other solutions out there too. How does Debian make decisions, for example?

I don’t know anything about Decidim yet, personally, but I think evaluating options like this is the way to go.
Checked it out, and to be honest, it is fucking rad (excuse my enthusiastic french). It looks very polished, and – though I recognise that this might be (another) case of tunnel vision – it looks like a great fit for the Agora. Ease of voting is a potential issue, but it looks quite easy on Decidim as well – nothing a good readme can’t solve (imhumbleo).
If we want to have secret ballots for certain votes, like defederation, or removing a mod, this may be the tool to use. I’m not sure that Lemmy has the tools to do this here, where we ensure that only this instance’s users can vote. Not yet, anyway.
