Pretty sad that your comment gets so much attention while dismissing a huge breakthrough in research.

    Maybe we shouldn’t have to SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON to have a discussion on the internet, or sit through an ad read for Brilliant or whatever

    And maybe people dismiss comments that dont get liked and assume the answer that gets liked is "more correct". Yes I wish it would work without the likes systemy but in reality 90% of the internet is AI slop and misinformation.

    Do we seriously have to listen to people air their gripes about internet video anytime a link is shared? Jesus Christ.

    Its not a huge breakthrough in research, mate - its a feasibility study. Its claims are promising, but until its tested in the real world it's just interesting, not a breakthrough.

    Upvotes don't mean much, they don't change the ranking of comments like on worse social media like Facebook or Reddit. Don't worry about them. I've seen very useful and valuable comments downvoted to heck and vice-versa.

    Its been tested by now, Ive looked into it a little. Seems like 90% of the time contrails form inside clouds and there is no benefit in avoiding them there. So simply avoiding contrails altogether is not recommended, but avoiding the ones forming in a clear sky would be pretty easy and extremely efficient warming-wise.

    Upvotes matter in the sense that comments with negative upvotes get dismissed more easily without thinking about them. Less people would watch a video from a comment with -5 votes than one with +100.
