## problem
|
|
using matrix emojis for voting has several issues:
|
|
- it's hard to retain records of voting
|
|
- easy double counting since collectives can have multiple delegates
|
|
- matrix clients vary in how bad they are with seeing reactions
|
|
|
|
## resolution
|
|
[loomio](https://www.loomio.com/) has been suggested and regarded as a good alternative for voting. We have a [recipe](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/loomio/) for it and it's maintained by members of [rtm](https://resisttechmonopolies.online/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
I propose a) we migrate to using loomio for voting without a change to voting rules.
|
|
|
|
in the spirit of mutual aid, self-reliance, and cooperativism, I also propose b) we hire a federation member to self-host and manage the loomio instance for us with the option to waive their dues in exchange.
