The repetition of the same comment over and over

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah. If they comment the same thing over and over it's repetition. 100%.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah, right? Like if they were to just state the same thing again and again, that's gotta be repetition.

Stating the same as other commenters already did.
wait...

It's a human thing, this is all social media. It'll happen here as well if enough people join a conversation and especially if the userbase expands. Everyone just want to have their say/get attention without checking the other comments.

YouTube comments are probably getting hammered with OpenAI powered bots. It's common for bots to duplicate liked posts but now, they can automate the process with a little more flair.

Stating obvious shit like it was some hidden piece of wisdom? Inability to handle subtleties like "lying" vs. "saying an incorrect statement"? Voting system? People repeating the same shit over and over, without reading the others' comments?

EDIT: I'm highlighting that this YT comment section shows a lot of things to hate in Reddit. In some aspects they're behaving exactly like redditors; in some they're actually doing it better, even if YT is a cesspool of idiocy.

Point 1 & 3 basically. Every thread where there's an obvious subtext it seems like the top 5 comments are telling you about it while patting themselves on the back for figuring out while seemingly not having read any of the other comments.

It depends on what the meaning of "is" is.
