I see a lot of comments from bootlickers on how the protests are dumb and stupid and dont work and engagement metrics are still holding but the quality of posts and comments has noticeably depreciated imo. So much so that whenever I visit the site Im actually shocked at how bad it is.
We’d need an objective way to measure lameness and then review a large set of posts (on a particular sub?) from a couple of months ago vs now. Criteria have to be pre-determined to avoid the post hoc fallacy.
Average words or characters per comment? Number of insults directed at other commenters (measured by someone blinded to which group they came from)? Number of “controversial” comments judged by large numbers of up and downvoted?
I dunno. I’m not doing it. Not a social scientist. Just suggesting an interesting experiment.
how about a number of crying laughing emoji per thread?
😅😂 OMG this is so accurate 😅😂

Saying “this” is lazy, but sending a bot to chide people for you is lazy and clogs up threads too.
Good bot
