Looks like it's still in the planning stages. But looks like a cool project.

In the general case, to get some feedback about the project. What is so bad about it that people feel like it a negative contribution to the community?

In this specific case, because I don't want to get into a "he said/she said" argument about the serial downvoters. So by asking to explain it, the public can gauge by themselves who is being reasonable.

I disagree with bringing in more redditors to this site. I think the community ambassador system is a quick way of creating a bunch of powermoderators on a system that's supposed to be designed to resist that kind of behavior and centralization.

If you hate being downvoted because of disagreement, why would you want to bring more users who default to that behavior?

I also do not believe you should have any more power or capacity in the fediverse. It's clear to me by your behavior in this thread that even basic things like being downvoted can set you off and make you decide to try to start a witch hunt.

I think you are making some false assumptions here. Me calling out someone does not mean I "hate" anything. It just means that I am trying to understand why someone is so bothered by what I am doing to the point of chasing me around.

The rest of the argument, I really don't know what to make of it. Seems like you already made up your mind about me and my intentions, so there is nothing that I can say or do that can change that. All I can say is that the project is open source and if someone else wants to work on it and make their own database, more power to them.

You calling somebody out publicly is entirely to illicit a reaction from the crowd. Surely, a direct message would have been more appropriate for a disagreement over a series of downvotes?

By doing this publicly you've definitely made the situation way, way worse than it had to be.
