Considering that a user can perform 3 reactions and that you can add reactions to your own post, 10x is still low. With 2 extra accounts you can get 9 reactions immediately so you are immune to the first vote.

Based on my experience, If I am late to downvote a bad post before 10/15 reactions then it's too late unless more trusted users do it before that post gather more reactions.

Once you have your first boost, you are on the top and more reactions will come easily so it become more difficult to fight. Bad posts can easily reach 100+ reactions in a few hours.

@afif This type of fine-tuning is exactly what @jeremyf and I have in mind as potential candidates for future experimentations. We believe this is just a start for many iterations to come. I am logging it here in an issue to make sure we don't miss it when we are ready for the next round of experimentation.

Thanks for your feedback!
