Front-page you see this delightful post. 14-11 votes, 96 comments mostly pointing out that it's a shit quote, a one sentence claim by Einstein, and one single garbled comment from OP, our hero /u/endlesssunflowers, a smug fedora-tier attack on a strawman, not responding to any of the 95 comments

This is called thread abandonment and I ban it on my sub(s). If you want a good site all the power needs to be in good moderation and minimal interference from admin. If there's minimal interference from admin users will naturally gravitate to well moderated subs. That the direction reddit was on from 2012-2016 but they took a hardcore departure when Trump got elected.

We need actual mods who can work to actually implement this dream of a "pyramid of debate" centered site.

It's impossible. A pyramid of debate is to open to interpretation and manipulation. It was a good starter idea but the admin on saidit needs to start listening more to user suggestion or the site will stagnate and die.

I think it's all about reactions. I troll super hard on reddit, but only because I think they deserve it. It's kind of refreshing to come back to saidit and be serious.
