A better comment would have been like "this reminds me of Technology Connections' Alec Watson, he talks a lot about how much he hates blue LEDs. Here's a video [link]"

It makes the same reference, but provides more context, more content, and a new point of discussion.

This kind of low effort comment should have stayed on Reddit.

I didn't find it very hard to change how I downvoted comments. Of course what counts as contributing to a conversation is subjective, but I don't think that should stop people from using it to decide whether to upvote or downvote. I downvote low effort comments, inflammatory comments, rude comments, and comments that spiral into tangents about unrelated topics. I upvote comments using my own judgement to encourage healthy discussions where people contribute differing ideas. I may not agree with every comment I upvote.

Die? What is it with assuming that small instances will inevitably die? There are people out there who want small instances, they will keep them alive.
