as a secondary benefit the increasing difficulty of reading these comments helps remind me that there are so many better things i could be doing with my time besides engaging with discourse lmao

It's helpful to have a mechanic that discourages protracted conversations in this particular situation, not gonna lie
we should come up with a good term for this phenomenon (or ask a German speaker for their existing one)
reading each comment with a rise in pitch, like each line in front of it is another huff of helium
