Also, hardly anyone looks at the threads. Most users just scroll the OPs.
You can tell this by the large differential in the number of reactions to an OP and the number of reactions to the replies under the OP. Also, the replies often contain comments that wouldn't make sense, if they had looked at the thread, before clicking. They're just replying blind, to the OP.

Happy Birthday Silberengel!!! LOL
TBF, TL;DR was not invented here :D
Yes, but then admit that replies hardly make a difference. You have to get boosted or quoted.
I often see replies before OP, but that's by my design. I notice the exact same thing. Continuing threads are usually missed entirely. I originally blamed lazy readers, but nostrudel is the only client i've used that offers a large breath in threads.
