After receiving an upvote it should get exponentially harder to give more. Like votes 1-10 you have to double click; 10-20 triple click... At 100 you have to do a captcha. Just keep adding obstacles. (lemmy.world)

Exactly. 1, 1000; bot doesn't care. A human, on the other hand... this is a scheme to promote bot nets, not discourage them.

Not just clicks, I'd use that would be the first level or something. I dunno just an idea
