RE: What is an insightful comment worth if nobody reads it?

Yes, I also think that comments often have few readers. In my case, I only read comments or comments on comments if the post was interesting to me and I am therefore interested in the discussion. But maybe I belong to the dying generation that still reads posts at all :-)

I wonder how we could increase the reach of comments. An insertion like you wrote above is probably not a good idea. Maybe some kind of extra menu item for trending comments?

Maybe some kind of extra menu item for trending comments?

Yeah, that's one possibility I was thinking about. I guess there are several possible approaches that people could experiment with. It would be interesting to see different platforms try for unique approaches to the problem. Another thing that might help would be the ability to resteem comments. It seems like it wouldn't be hard at all to add support for that.
