Quantity may have a quality all its own in warfare but for comments having the invite tree and accountability is pretty nice!
I'd rather have (2) really insightful comments than 300 trying to promote themselves.
- tapirl 3y agoInvite doesn't always guarantee insightful comments.
- thrdbndndn 3y agoFrom my experience in invite-only forums, it can only assure some bottom line (mainly, fewer troll posts), but it doesn't help at all on the quality of comments. The only thing I saw that ever significantly improved the quality of comments is vote-based comment system when it firstly started to emerge (I'm thinking Reddit in its first few years). But unfortunately it nowadays has been gamed to death, probably even worse than old public forums.
- gtirloni 3y agoExcept you don't see those 2 really insightful comments there.
- robocat 3y ago> 300 Exaggerating doesn't make reflect well on your argument. HN doesn't have a notable problem with self-promotion.
