I look at who wrote things before I start reading and I read through the lens of my pre-existing opinion of them.
I just noticed it a few minutes ago, and tried to read a comment without doing it. Something in my brain was screaming But how do I file this info?? How can I know how deeply I want to consider these words??
Even when I could succeed at not scrolling down to look at the name, the trust score and color was right there, so a filter was getting built.
I wonder if there could be an option to hide names and scores and see if my trust/distrust clicks stay the same when I don’t know who it is or how I feel about them.
