Feature Request: vote reasons, e.g., +1 funny -1 troll, etc.

https://lemmy.world/comment/138272

@1993_toyota_camry@beehaw.org wrote a great post about Slashdot upvotes/moderation which I think makes a good feature request.

Here is the opening line of their post: "this was something I loved about slashdot moderation. When voting, people had to specify the reason for the vote. +1 funny, +1 insightful, +1 informative, -1 troll, -1 misleading, etc."

The post also mentions moderation as well so I suggest a full read.

I hope I described it well, I didn't expect it to become a post :)

I'm not sure how applicable much of this would be to lemmy though. The federated nature of the software makes things like meta-moderation a lot more difficult.

If you have any concerns let me know as I'd be fine to remove the post and make my own from scratch. :)
