I sent my Steam Deck video of Mosa Lina to /r/SteamDeck, it got downvoted to oblivion and the one single comment is:
"Is there any way to block posts that just redirect to YouTube videos? Clickbait rubbish โThis Game Is Hilariousโ with no text and just a link to the video?"

I felt good about breaking my no-video streak recently until that. People are such asshats.

People do not want to engage with logos.
"We have found that readers generally do not engage with content posted on the journal handles and we have had limited success with trying things like threads and tagging thought leaders. Where the engagement with journals content happens is with organic posting โ an author or collaborator or thought leader will decide to post a journal article, summarize, and offer an opinion. These posts tend to enjoy a significant amount of engagement."
