I can't see how this can affect the echo chamber issue in any way. Turning the "disklike" button into "respect, but dislike" hardly does anything to the substance of the general conversation topics. People are still socially afraid of presenting viewpoints and trying to make people do so with their own name and face will produce worse results VS twitter. Unless a monochamber is what you're shooting for. To be fair to you, I hardly see any technological solution within humanity's current capabilities as a solution for the problem.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to reach out. I'm glad you've seen the respect button innovation. The meaning of that button is not "respect, but dislike". We want it to be "normally I wouldn't engage, but there is a positive signal I want to share". Since we are alternating the YES / NO sides all the times, engaging with the other side and showing respect foster more balanced debates.
