Personally, I am afraid.

I am a Reddit user, and Reddit relies on upvotes to work.

I am also afraid what will happen with Github stars. I think they are a nice feature, but I guess they are legally almost identical to Reddit upvotes. GitHub can continue working without GitHub stars, but they are a form of communication that you are doing something good. My AEC-to-WebAssembly compiler has 21 GitHub stars, which is a sign that people like that.

I don’t understand your concerns. Section 230 prevents online platforms from being sued over third party content. What’s that got to do with upvotes?
