I get a ton more (mostly harmless) ‘reply guy’ content here than on Twitter for some reason.
In almost every case it boils down to, "you may not be aware of this one simple technical trick/tool/tip” to make your online/news/life experience better.
Typically, these are tips I have been aware of for a decade. But it is such an intersting lack of empathy that:
A) The suggested fix might not address the actual context.
B) Someone may have awareness of the solution set but still have a problem.
Instead of a “have you read the story” prompt before boosting, do we need “have you looked at their bio before offering unsolicited advice?"
@LouisIngenthron And I think that is the right argument. Friction that slows down bots, spammers, trolls is good - slowing down understanding/context is not.
