Besides the already mentioned subreddits != tags, I also find the “high quality discussion” goal questionable in this idealistic form.
There is time for fun, and while some jokes are definitely overdone on Reddit, I do occasionally enjoy reading them. A better idea would be to have different kinds of upvotes, at least ‘useful’ and ‘funny’. That way a genuinely informative comment that for example calls out the post can float to the top as the funnier, low-effort one won’t directly compete with it.
Also, censorship is a must for any forum/community as anyone who have come remotely close to one should know. It just won’t work otherwise, 100%.
