It’s a score that is controlled by other people, which causes restrictions if it gets too low.
It’s moderation by popularity. I can’t and won’t support that.

It causes zero restrictions if it gets too low, all that happens is admins see a red ! next to a username.

Why do you tankies always lie
Every account has a Social Credit Score, you concede that.
If your account has less than 100 Social Credit Score and is newly created, you are not considered “trustworthy” and there are limitations placed on what your account can do.
If your Social Credit Score is at -10 you cannot downvote, you can’t create new DMs and It flags your account automatically like this:

PieFed uses a hard coded list to rank an instances’ defederation list for its quality. If an instance doesn’t defederate from what Rimu decided the instances stated quality goes down.

Why do I keep running into people calling others “tankies” who are very explicitly anti-“tankie?”

It was the “tankies” reporting on PieFed’s social credit score system, Deceptichum is attacking the “tankie” position. In fact, it was because the communists started talking about PieFed’s social engineering that this drama even kicked off.

I think piefed’s biggest proponents lie about this because it is one of the more unappealing aspects of piefed, and there isn’t really a way to sugarcoat it. Social credit score based on the votes of others is just a shitty way of running a social platform.
Humans as social creatures already have innate fear of social rejection, and Karma/Social Credit systems on platforms that punish rejection just feed that dark pattern even more aggressively. It’s really not something I would elect to use after going through Reddit’s version of Karma. Especially because Piefed’s is ever more conditional (they can blacklist communities from counting towards your score positively but you still lose score points from those communities).
