A Suggestion to Medium

I have a great idea that Medium should consider. How about leveraging AI to rate the sentiment of comments in articles so they can be ranked by the quality judged by the readers.

I’m assuming that currently they are ranked by engagement, so the super controversial and AI slop articles get the most exposure.

Medium, I would strongly consider this idea lest you go down the enshittification black hole. Medium is one of the last refuges on the internet for civil discourse. Please do all you can to keep it that way!
