Curious, which one is it? I suspect the former.
- alkonaut 8y ago2B must be ”pageviews per month”?
- benjaminjackman 8y agoMaybe 12M articles / self posts, 2B comments?
- overcast 8y agoNah, no way on average an article gets 166 comments. That must be page views or something.
- RandallBrown 8y agoWhy not? Most front page posts have several thousand posts, which seems like it might be enough to offset the 0 comments that most submissions will get.
- overcast 8y agoSo what are we talking about, 1% of 12 million articles gets a few thousand comments?
- simias 8y agoThe front page is obviously not representative in any way of 99% of the posts made on the platform. Look at the slew of posts made on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/all/new/ https://www.reddit.com/r/all/new/ Most will be lucking to reach 10 comments.
- gtaylor 8y agoThis is correct.
- attfarhan 8y agoLiveblogger here. This post was best-effort liveblogged while the talk was going on, so this typo was my fault. I've fixed it to say "2B votes per month", which reflects what was on the speaker's slides.
