But IIUC, if one submits 1000 links and 10% of them get 100+ votes, while the rest get <100, then one's h-index is the same (100) as if one submitted 100 links

But IIUC, if one submits 1000 links and 10% of them get 100+ votes, while the rest get <100, then one's h-index is the same (100) as if one submitted 100 links, but all of them got 100+ votes. So, it doesn't measure "spaminess". That's what the question was about, I believe - is there a way to take this into account, while not losing the good parts of h-index.

That's why a lot of people like to look at more than one number when looking at a set summary, but you can't compare and classify these as easily. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-number_summary https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-number_summary
