I made a userscript to calculate the Bussy Busting score for Reddit comments

I cobbled together expertly crafted a userscript that adds a button to Reddit comments which calculates the Bussy Busting score of that comment.

To install, you'll need a userscript manager (see step 1 on greasyfork.org frontpage) if you don't already have one, then you just click here and the manager should prompt you to install the script.

Some additional info:

  • calculates the score both considering text in quote blocks (labelled wq) and ignoring it (labelled nq)
  • automatically uses the most wordswordswords reply in each category
  • it doesn't use the visible replies but instead uses the API to get all replies of the target comment
  • uses the original formula of number of words (in a reply) divided by number of characters (in the comment whose score is being calculated)
  • it supports both old.reddit.com and the redesign's post pages
  • doesn't support i.reddit.com (lol)
  • for the character counting step, it counts codepoints instead of graphemes (emojicels btfo)
  • doesn't work properly on deleted comments and replies (theoretically it could be expanded to work on reveddit.com)

EDIT: The nq count chokes on nested quote blocks, that's a bug

So I could just copy and paste the comment into a free website that counts the words or install a whole application and do all of that? Man that’s a tough one!

You could open a new tab, type word counter into the task bar, click on the site, copy + paste, copy + paste the reply, copy + paste the letter counts for both comments, open a new tab, search "calculator" on Google to get the little calculator thing to pop up (God lnows you're too stupid to do the math in your head, and divide one by another, totalling in at 17 clicks/key presses (counting words and sentences as one key press to be as kind to you as possible) every time you want to check th BB score for sometning, or click two buttons right now and have it automatically appear on every comment. What a conundrum.
