I guess I just find it sad that low effort infinitely recycled jokes are what make it to the top, when we can actually have a decent discussion about something.
I get what you’re saying, and if it’s a matter of the low effort snarky/funny stuff rising to the top because of upvotes, that’s probably a systemic problem. Short quick posts will have more people read them to completion, so that probably makes upvotes more likely.
However, I bet thoughtful comments also get rewarded with further discussion in replies.

I come here for both, and I tend to find both.

If they agree with the general opinion, sure they won’t get buried, but you still have to wade through the shit to get to them.
But if it’s a dissenting opinion, even if it makes logical sense, or even just has the facts straight, it will get buried.
I just miss the days that the internet wasn’t just snarky low effort jokes and memes and you could actually find decent discussions.
They are. In other comments. Some comments are just bad jokes. You can scroll past if they upset you.
God forbid the guy blocks users so he doesn’t see “low effort” comments.
