Why is every “Similar Thread” at the bottom of my feed a Gordon Gekko thread? (1 Viewer)

Seriously. Is it tied to word count or something like that? Seems like a broken feature.

If you like posts do they pop up more in your feed?

I do not click like on any of his overly verbose posts. I click into them, but rarely comment. I generally just scroll to see how long it is.

Because very few of the threads he starts are ever original. Theyre almost always a duplucate of an exisiting thread.

You wronged someone in a previous lifetime.

I think you have to apologize to their children to lift the curse, but don't quote me on that

This is plausible. I’d imagine somewhere in the 10,000 word posts he has keyword overlap.

Not on mine. Probably some artifical intelligence which revealed you are secretly infatuated with him.

I don’t believe in it.

GG was prolific and covered a wide range of topics, for good or ill. Nothing more to it than that.

Plus, if the "Similar Thread" match algorithm is based on keyword searches of both titles and posts ... it's a lock that as many words as he's posted, he'll have posted keywords to dang near matching any other political post.

Reading more to his posts would be good for you.

GG is the PSF six degrees of separation thread equivalent to Kevin Bacon.
