Less of an implied popularity contest.
I can’t think of a way, but LW feels like much less of a popularity contest, and it has that problem.
I don’t think verbosity is a big problem on LW. People not making posts for fear of being downvoted, or just not investing the time necessary to create good discussion/top-level posts, seems much bigger.
It is much more segmented popularity contest because who are the “right” people vaires.
Follower count is a global instantly updated popularity contest, which may be considered worse.
