@ntnsndr do you know the software liquidfeedback? I didn't read the developers book (https://liquidfeedback.com/en/book-the-principles-of-liquidfeedback.html) but used the software in my time at the German Pirate Party and I haven't seen such a good working machine for creating democratic decisions ever after. Not only yes or no answers but complex texts. Of course liquidfeedback wouldn't work in all scenarios but liquid democracy and some other concepts implemented by liquid feedback are, from my perspective, key to good online democracy.
