Threading
- Single Thread
- Live chats tend to do this (eg Twitch chat)
- Old-school forums tend to do this (Discourse)
- Pros: dead simple
- Tree structure (Nested comments)
- Depth 1:
- What our Free Response, StackOverflow, Quora already have
- Slack, Discord, Discord kinda support this now
- Depth N: What Reddit, LessWrong has
- Cons: Bad on mobile? Lots of logical depth?
- Graph-like threading
- This is how Twitter works - via directed acyclic graph
- [J] DAG’s are just a set of trees. Isn’t this the same as tree structure depth N above?
- [i] tweets are probably not directed, just a big network - but they have a timeline so nvm
- [J] that’s true you can reference other tweets
- [i] yeah I think twitter is just the tree structure from above but with a crap-ton of branches for tweets that actually receive attention
- [i] tree just doesn’t feel like the right name, dag makes more sense
Also: How should comments work in Free Response markets?
- [i] I’d think each answer would have a comments timeline just like the binary contracts
