    I think a lot of that is because of size as well. Your post won’t get buried under 20 copies of the same cliche joke (one with 850 upvotes, one with 23, and the rest at +1 or +2) everything is actually read by at least a few humans somewhere, and everything is presumably also written by humans.

      This is so completely true. I tried out the r/cth discord around the time it was banned and it’s like the chat in an MMO, moving so quick you literally can’t have a conversation. Why even bother at that point?!
