In an effort to get to know my audience, I went through a few dozen of comments to see which ones people like. I see that what gets a lot of upmarseys is:
anything related to
s 
just a single marsey and no words
moidmoments/foidmoments
hating Japan
insulting other users
calling anybody an r-slur or neurodivergent
What does not get upmarseys:
figure skating - I'm really pissed off about this.
references to old boomer music and movies
"dude bussy lmao" - The popularity of this phrase has declined over the years.
replying to that butthole sidevoter
@Sphereserf3232
Notice that the quality or effort put into it doesn't seem to have any impact either way.
Is this consistent with your experience? What other kinds of r-slurred low-effort bullshit can I post that will get me upmarseys?

Yeah, that was how you got points on reddit. I wouldn't make posts. I would go to the #1 or #2 comment on it and reply to that. Lots of people would look at the post, then start reading the comments. They get to the 2nd comment and they're still tossing upmarseys around. After that they get bored and leave.
We have the same thing here, except the capy actually tries to combat it. He's programmed it so there's some churn where new posts can displace old posts with lots of votes, so that you don't end up with a few posts dominating all day. I don't know if he's applied any of that to comments tho.

Yeah, post variety is pretty good and my feed changes depending on time of day. I think the comments basically work like reddit, though.
