FTA:
> People on Twitter, as well as Sorrenti, claimed that the official Cloudflare account hid replies on its tweets related to dropping Kiwi Farms, and then deleted tweets that were ratioed by people talking about the campaign. Cloudflare’s Twitter account normally posted at least daily before this week, but hasn’t tweeted in four days, as of writing.
What is the meaning of “ratioed” in this sentence?
- xupybd 4y agoRatioed means the ratio of comments to like is very high. This normally means more people disagree than agree.
- camdv 4y agoFrom Know Your Meme: The Ratio or Ratioed refers to an unofficial Twitter law which states that if the amount of replies to a tweet greatly outnumbers the number of retweets and likes, then the tweet is bad. Additionally, "to ratio" a tweet means to make a quote retweet or reply that manages to get more likes and retweets than the quoted post.

- DanBC 4y agoCloudflare posts a tweet defending their action and it gets some likes. Keffals posts a reply tweet telling CF to drop KiwiFarms and that reply gets very many more likes than CloudFlare's original tweet. The ratio of likes is what's referred to as "ratioed".
