- nickvec 7mo agoLikes are obviously correlated with the number of views a post gets. I am not sure what point you are trying to make.
- fnordian_slip 7mo agoThat assumption is only true if there is no manipulation of likes. I believe that the presence of bot farms has been extensively documented by now, which should disprove the usefulness of likes on any social media platform nowadays.

- thephyber 7mo agoYou are making lots of assumptions when evaluating GitHub projects that you aren’t writing here. GH stars can indicate: which of many forks of a repo might be the most active, which of many projects in a category might be the most used/trusted, the growth trajectory of a projects (stars over time).
