- There doesn't seem to be a way to agree with an argument, without
adding a distinct "pro". This means that if a post is liked by 8 of us and disliked (for different reasons) by 3, there would be 3 cons against it, no pros, and a misrepresentation of our communal opinion.
It’s not a voting tool. It is a way to map out the arguments, and (maybe) more easily appreciate and take in the facets of the discussion than other forms.
That said, Kialo has an optional “voting” feature, where you can rate the “impact” of each claim (i.e. how strongly a pro or con claim affects its parent claim). https://support.kialo.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000705652-About-Voting I’ll enable it, maybe it’s useful.
Enabled it now. It allows you to rate the impact (i.e. relevance and truth) of a claim on its parent claim, and the UI will then order claims by relevance. So it isn’t voting in the sense of “now a slight majority overrules a small minority to create facts” (for that we still use our email ballots), but a way to add more refined signal to the view on the debate that Kialo provides: The most relevant pros and cons are now highlighted, and claims that are not convincing are de-emphasized. There is no need to vote on everything, of course. Cheers, Joachim -- Joachim Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de http://www.joachim-breitner.de/
