I totally don't think so, rather none is engaging to get juicy comment upvotes, and even if, which is a big iffy, then sharing xy% with the post isn't a big deal at all.

But it opens up a lot of doors and creates a new logical pathway to the old web platforms where the value of content is measured in the created engagement and that is what people are therefore specialized in.

Comment sections on Youtube are basically small universes and totally enjoyable in their depth. Knowing about the importance of that, the content creator is adjusted to stir up conversations down there. Ain't that exactly what you ask for to happen on Leo as well?

YouTube has the same problem as we do. In fact, I would make the case they are no more successful at it than we are. The major difference is that YouTube has a couple billion users. Leofinance is around 500.

But the percentage who comment as compared to those who actually view a video is low.

Youtube has an insane amount of TV & youth consumption, we have 0 of both :P
Makes it really hard to compare the raw numbers.

They are huge. But they also have the content. We are changing that. However, to really be a threat, we have to have viable options. We havent gotten to that point yet.
