Terrible algorithm

They have gotten rid of most of the spam but they re also getting rid of loads of legitimate comments on Yahoo Finance I posted a comment talking about how Disney was overvalued and even if their earnings went back up to 2019 levels which is really unlikely because of all the big movies which came out that year they would still have a P E ratio of around 20 OpenWeb s algorithm removed my comment because it supposedly violated Yahoo Finance s Community Guidelines Maybe it s because I used the term insanely unlikely and they didn t like the term insane but it s still stupid Their algorithm is trash and they don t even bother telling you which guideline they think you violated or allow you to appeal to a human moderator The algorithm is worse than YouTube s because at least the comment YouTube removed could appear hateful at first glance I made up a fake anecdote about a certain group of people to prove my point about anecdotes not being real evidence but I can see why their algorithm would think it violated their policy Although at least OpenWeb tells you which comment was removed

Pros and Cons mostly Pros

I spend a lot of my time arguing politics online Yes I realize that s pathetic Anyway OpenWeb is my favorite comment engine so far The inline editing and ease of following the conversations are superior to both Disqus and LiveFyre The email links bring you straight to the relevant comment and and open editing window so that you can write your reply quickly Selecting text brings up a pop-up menu that allows you to change font effects bold italic etc which is much better than any existing product My only complaint is that you can t write a reply email and have it automatically post to the site That would obviously reduce traffic on the client website so it won t be implemented by any comment engine ever But it would be nice
