But no downvote is good and bad IMO. Downvotes can help alot of spam but get abused by whales.
The essence of VYB is to demonstrate the effectiveness of anti-abuse measures without needing to rely on downvotes. With @scholaris managing that effort, that's where my vote is going (although I am admittedly biased). This is not to say that we will get everything right on the first try -- we most assuredly will not. However, we are committed to doing everything we can to make this VYB experiment a resounding success.
With that said, if you are highly skeptical of our ability to mitigate abuse without relying on downvotes, then you should probably opt for #2 (POB). If you are confident in our ability to do that, then you should probably opt for #1 (VYB). If you are unsure, then maybe a mix of the two is in order. (Not investment advice, of course!)
POB on the other had has a better logo
That's interesting. @calumam designed both logos. He designed the POB logo a couple months after the POB tribe launched -- and I don't think he was asked to do it, I think he just did it and then made it available for POBio to use if he wanted to and he did. With that said, the VYB logo is definitely not set in stone.
