    Maybe we should end each comment we make with a footer that says, “If you liked this comment, please smash that upvote button!”

      I mean, if you were getting paid for engagement, it was your primary source of income and your comments were hundreds, if not thousands of words long all the time? Sure.

      Almost like it being a job makes people treat it differently or something.

        Well, I’ve already gotten 4 upvotes, so I’m boot too far away from quitting my job and making this my career! I’ll get that shiny Lemmy Commenter Award and branded letter of recognition any day now.

        And don’t forget to smash that upvote button!
