I came out of Miko's announcement wanting to yell at the people who prompted it, and it takes conscious effort to acknowledge that's counterproductive. Clicks are engagement, views are engagement, comments are engagement, replies are engagement, even downvotes are a sort of engagement, and any engagement boosts bad posts and increases their audience. Every big platform works like this, and it's terrible for dealing with jerks who should be made to shut up.
