Hmm, we get a lot of people dropping off due to too much chatter.

How about a really simple addition to the list; if we had an ability to vote
for posts as "informative" (simply a boolean value), then people could
subscribe to a filtered, delayed version of the list which contained only
posts with a certain amount of votes. More simply, just provide one filtered
version as above, where posts need 3 or more votes to get in the list.

It'd be low traffic, but you wouldn't miss the good stuff.
