Higher-voted comments are consistently more insightful and interesting than low-voted ones.
This was also my experience (on LW) several years ago, but not recently. On Reddit, I don’t see much difference between highly- and moderately-upvoted comments, only poorly-upvoted comments (in a popular thread) are consistently bad.
