Checking the comments of a couple of posts, I noticed their lengths seem to be too uniform. E.g. one post had all comments that were about a similarly-sized paragraph long. Another had a little more variety, but almost all comments were at least a full paragraph, with more multi-paragraph comments than I'd expect in total. Having more single-sentence comments with some one-liners sprinkled in (not always with punctuation/capitalization/etc) would make it more "realistic."
That's a great callout – appreciate it.
Also some comments have "you're absolutely right" in them
Also missing (I think) are anecdotes about previous experiences involving famous people or just memorable moments in history.
Also comments where the poster shares details from their own life instead of just commenting on the topic.
But I can't really describe this "human Factor" any better than through examples.
