13·1 month agoThat’s first past the post.
And that leads to strategic voting, and winner takes all.
Which concentrates way too much power

5·1 month agoRanked choice should solve this.
If you vote for 5 left wing parties, with the last one being one you know isn’t going to get eliminated, then your vote still goes to the left

Technology@lemmy.world•EU Commission bans top officials from using Signal groupsEnglish

Technology@lemmy.world•'It's Possible to jailbreak F-35 like iPhone', Says Dutch State Secretary of Defense TuinmanEnglish
