I am not sure why Mastodon is the only platform I am on where ending a post with "I am not interested in debating this" gets dozens of replies, many of which are, in fact, trying to debate this.

@evacide I wonder how hard it would be to try and determine if 'I am not interested in debating this' increases the number of replies or not?

Like actually have for each post federating it with and without that bit and see which version generates more replies.
