The opportunity to reply is only invoked after an increasing amount of time, which I think is dependent on the depth of the conversation. In other words, the further into a conversation you are, the more time you are forced to take to think on the other person's response.
- xorand 7y agoGreat idea! I was thinking about how to make votes (aka likes) more like real votes. Maybe by updating the number of likes of a post once every 6 hours.
- anoncake 7y agoCan you draft a reply before that times has passed? I wonder how that would influence the conversation.
- lonelappde 7y agoYou can draft whatever you want on your own machine.
- anoncake 7y agoYes, obviously. That's not what I'm asking.
- johnday 7y agoNo, you cannot. I think the intention is to deprive you of the opportunity to start writing at all. There are studies that show the longer you take thinking before acting, the better your outcomes are.
- anoncake 7y agoThat's what I thought is the intention. But writing can be part of thinking so if people don't write immediately and send when they can letting them draft might improve outcomes.
