that one on Friends was not Fran Drescher, it was Maggie Wheeler
Oh, definitely. However I'm not so sure that these are the low quality comments they're talking about. I believe it's the ones that are being posted just to get that quick upvote in order to feel more validated.
In my experience the only ones caring about engagement scores are advertisers. If you agree with a post/comment you don't actually have to press any button (upvote, like, heart, etc) or even reply to it. We've been conditioned to do it because they have found a way to profit off of our "uh huh" and "yeah that's right". I'm not suggesting it's all bad, I'm trying to put it into context.
I think this is a symptom of having a scoring system for comments. If you gamify your social interactions, people will try to play the game (meaning low quality comments, dad jokes, or anything that will grant them easy votes) instead of having actual discourse.
I thought that there was a setting to remove these info cards. I'm pretty sure I saw it a few months back when I was looking for a way to disable them.
That seems like a low price to pay to have your name immortalized in a monument.
Exactly. I was referring to it as an "inactive icon" in the context of a user that doesn't bother customizing their UI. Firefox has got to be one of the most customizable browsers out there. Even before delving into the madness that is userscripts!
I've been using Firefox for the past 20ish(?) years now, I never had an issue with Pocket. Isn't that a service you have to sign up for anyway? If you don't, then it's just an inactive icon on the toolbar. I don't see how people can be bothered by that so what am I missing?
P.S: I just noticed that there isn't even an icon now unless you manually sign up for pocket
Ladies and gentlemen, we were on a break.
OK that makes sense, I was trying to sign up and couldn't figure out why everything was timing out. Sorry if my attempts looked like spam.
edit: it still doesn't work for me btw
