This is why that in many ways, web3 social media is similar to another social media in so much that it people like to be seen and heard much more than they like to see and hear.
With Web3, it doesn't end there though as it appears very, very few will disagree with anything preferring to just move on. Not great for debate or discussion. This problem is compounded by reward. The bigger the HP of the rewarder, the most engagement they get, always in agreement. Your comment rewarder is brilliant but it also proves the truth that engagement increase when comments are guaranteed to be rewarded! This post may be an example, and it's the reason I'm not in total agreement with you over the definition in value of a post or necessarily think the two examples you quoted are great examples to use! I will 100% agree though that users simply turning up, posting and cashing out from legacy auto-votes and never engaging at all need to be 'strongly discouraged' by community use of downvotes, as do users who farm their autovotes of community delegations by posting 100 words and a picture each day.
Ahhh back to the same problem, very rarely do users downvote anyone with more stake than they have and people can use their stake however they choose........enough!!! Going around in circles yet again!
Hive needs more discussion and debate, and just a little bit of drama from time to time :-)
Hope you both had a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
