Not the person you replied to, but I imagine less gameable signals than stars would make sense. Download count, default installs in multiple distros, industrial use cases in the cloud all come to mind.

Maybe giving money to the endowment gives you a vote? (Kills two birds with one stone.)

		> We do prioritize input from paid-up members ofc. Pay-to-play, this reinforces the SV mindset underpinning all of this. Strongly recommend you revise this if you are trying to present yourself as egalitarian. Feedback and suggestions for improvement ought to be considered on the merits, not who it came from, especially if money is the differentiator. (setting aside the natural reputation based weighting)
