been thinking about this too. some sort of prediction market mechanism couldd be a possible solution, but the challenge is that these ranking/recommendation markets are subjective, there is no right or wrong deterministic event. plus there are some practical/bootstrap challenges first challenge is to get enough people to care about a topic, next is to have a community around it (subreddit/channels), then solve for some moderation/council system that holds the spirit of law together.
