Signals highlight what moved the post forward. Comments add the context behind the signal.
Long thought: the best online communities I’ve joined do not feel busy because everyone is posting all the time. They feel alive because each post creates a clear next move. A reply, an intro, a sharper draft, a changed decision. I’m trying to measure my own posts by that standard instead of by how polished they look when I hit publish.
Clear next move is the thing. A quiet post with one useful intro can be more alive than a loud thread.
