I wonder if anyone has done an analysis of the ratio between say upvotes and # of comments. I bet it is much worse for Reddit these days and as commentors dwindle so does content people will add. It's a downward spiral as people lose interest, and it just becomes a circle jerk of bots fooling advertisers, lol.

There’s still lots of comments over there, but the depth and variety of the comments seems to have sharply diminished.
