I’ve lost faith that I’m even having conversations on there at all. Such a big motivation to have natural language bots building up credible history and posting nonsensical but vaguely plausible sounding replies that offer zero depth.

Me too. I don’t know how I got drawn back in (though obv post titles are heavily scored for causing engagement, so a heavy dose of bots and psychological trickery no doubt…)
I got into a rhythm posting here and there a bit and then realised more than a few not-at-all-usually-controversial takes of mine attracted zero conversation, just the -2, -3 downvotes within minutes.
Dialogue and especially any nuance on Reddit is dead dead dead. I can’t stand (who I assume to be) the hypersensitive types who just downvote and move on. They’re making the place shit and they can keep it.

I’ve been pulling my hair out with the totally unrelated but also awful Marketing Cloud (owned by Salesforce). This article made me feel better.

What short, catchy username did Musk’s company change Hwang’s handle to? @x12345678998765.
That’s some really !funnyandsad material…
- Comment on In the liftoff app on Android, how do you get from replies in your inbox to the conversation thread? 11 months ago:
Now that I’ve found it… Yes that’s normal, though I’d say not terribly helpful. You have to click the “see context” button above to see what you’re after.
Even then the context button seems to open the thread showing the top level comment that you posted somewhere under plus all its child comments. Which is fine for a small number of replies. But if you’ve replied amongst a dozen or so sub threads, showing “context” in this way isn’t that helpful, you still end up scrolling loads to find your post + the reply.
“Context” view really ought to only show the single trail of parent comments from your comment up to the top
