I’d be in favor of something like “>15 karma + many curated new posts by the moderation team” as Caleb suggested below as a filtering option to try to resolve the issue of people just filtering out 100% of new posts and new posts never rising. E.g. I imagine you all could often whitelist certain users or just glance at a post and tell that it is worth pushing through without reading it (and generally I feel pro-heavier moderation on the Forum especially if it is focused on maintaining quality).

Yep this is true. Though it’s perhaps not reassuring to new authors lol.
“>15 karma + many curated new posts by the moderation team”
My current plan is >100 karma, and loads of ‘featured’ posts by the moderation team for the featured page, and then keeping the frontpage as is. Once I’ve built this thing there will be a lot of room for experimentation with the algorithm though.
