  To be honest, that's a bit of a minor signal all its own I personally don't consider worth the effort.

This is a great idea. I wrote a little JS snippet to paste into your browser's console to do this automatically. It iterates through all comments and upvotes any with a salary range / salary in the job description. Happy to make edits if you find a post doesn't match and it should—or vice versa. Upvotes are limited to 1 every 2s. var r1 = /(\$|£|€|)\d+(k|K)/m var r2 = /\d+-\d+(k|K)/m var r3 = /\d+(k|K) EUR/m var candidates = [r1, r2, r3]; var linkQueue = [] var comments = document.getElementsByTagName("tr") for (var i in comments) { var comment = comments[i]; if (comment.className && comment.className.indexOf("athing comtr") != -1) { for (var j in candidates) { if (comment.innerHTML.search(candidates[j]) != -1) { var linkElements = comment.getElementsByTagName("a"); for (var k in linkElements) { var link = linkElements[k] if (link.id && link.id.startsWith("up_") && (!link.className || (link.className && link.className != "nosee"))) { linkQueue.push(link); } } } } } } var identifier = setInterval(function() { var link = linkQueue.pop(); if (link) { link.click(); console.log(link); } else { clearInterval(identifier); } }, 2000);

  Excellent script. It matches "401k" however, so it might be worth matching against "401k" specifically. Also, I would recommend to others to give the whole thread a once-over after running the script, as it seems I've upvoted a couple of companies that had a big stream of complaints, and personally I do not upvote ads with complaints, even if they do other things (i.e. salary range) right.
