I think the forums achieves this better. You could have the OP make a post on the forum, and then have emoji reactions be upvotes and downvotes. But it's not really meant for it, not the same.

Forums also makes the search feature 10x worse than it already is. There is no way (that I could find) to search individual forum posts for keywords.

I often have to use the search feature to find people in severs, and half the time they don't even show up. Then I go to @ them in a channel, and then they suddenly show up in the search again, it's ridiculous
