Is it just me, or do top level notes get a lot more engagement than replies?

Yes.

Testing your theory with this reply

Probably true

Do you think there's any special reason for that?

Perhaps its because many clients don't provide push notifications?

Yes 🤙

There are no algo's. Depends a lot on the client that you are using. If the client wants to show replies you will see... The replies may be a setting or at a button that needs to be clicked..

That's an algo. Just not a very good one

What's the topic? I'm sorry I only look at replies.

It’s true

Part of that’s because we have 2 tabs for comments and top posts and people get tired or comment frequency so they hang out in top posts tab.

The solution is to show the comment being replied to so you have context for the reply: then you can limit number of seen replies from one person:

It depends on who you are. For someone with many followers, top level notes will get more eyes for the reasons stated. For the majority of people, their replies to popular accounts will get more engagement.

Makes sense to me

But quality replies to big accounts are key if you want to grow your reach.

Luke, are you a supporter of CTV or drivechains? Or any other BIPs? Trying to learn more.

Mostly neutral. I don't see an excuse to stand in the way of them.
