If you’re feeling extra spicy, upvote someone else’s comment and reply to it. Or reply to it without upvoting. Or upvote every other comment in a chain. Have real-life arguments. Anything to simulate a struggle session.

I’ve been agitating for a while now about the active sort algorithm being broken since downvotes were removed, and a few days ago I remember seeing a post in the modlog that had a lot of comments but that I hadn’t seen on the front page. I want to test whether or not the algorithm was tweaked to deprioritize posts with a lot of comments and relatively few upvotes.

If this change has been made, o7 to the devs

EDIT: Okay maybe give it a few upvotes to get it started in the algorithm, but let it top out at like 25

14 upvotes, 88 comments.

Anyways uhm… I bought a whole bunch of shungite, rocks, do you know what shungite is? Anybody know what shungite is. No, no Suge Knight, I think hes locked up in prison. Talking shungite. Anyways, its a 2 billion year old like rock, stone that protects against frequencies and unwanted frequencies that may be traveling in the air. So thats my story. I bought a whole bunch of stuff, put them around the la casa. Little pyramids. Stuff like that.

Listen fat, I want to see you get married to one of those It Girls, one of those flappers daddy used to like, Jack. Cornpop had his main squeeze and you should too, stupid. I used to run with some bad boys when I met your meemaw, tough hombres, we used to slick our hair back with torpedo grease, Jacob. You understand, right?

You got all types of guys being where they do all the time. But when you guy- when you loo- listen man, listen man alright? It’s like when we, when you get into the oval office day one, you gotta be around who you gotta be to see. And if you’re not seeing who you wanna- who you wanna go to to be who you are all the time whether you’re Christian, Jewish, Hindu, or any other type of holiday, see, you’re not gonna- you’re not gonna- exc- excuse me, you’re not gonna- you’re not gonna excrimate what we’re trying to do with the current president. And when you’re not, when you’re not being- being- being that where you are, you’ve gotta- you gotta do who you know. Thank you.

“Listen here jack, we’re going to clean the democratic party of revisionists and liberalism! No dog-faced pony soldiers for the elite will survive what I’m planning. That mao guy was good, but he didn’t go far enough with the, you know, the thing. Come on fats, we’re going to sieze the means of making, you know, all the things!”
