Data points: So this post made it to the front page with few votes, but 2 hours later it dropped off with 31 votes.
Lessons:
- Maybe don't post on a Friday afternoon.
- Maybe don't post from medium.com (low chances).
- >40 score choice seems sound, to look at posts with front-page permanence.
- minimaxir 10y ago- Meta-submissions receive an extra penalty. Another reason why analysis is tricky, as such submissions are hard to algorithmically identify. If manual penalties were public, they could be accounted for in a model. That's another reason why I like Reddit data better; fewer unknown penalties.
