People who advocate for comments on social media ... often argue that Twitter and Facebook engender higher-quality discussion in part because commenters are (usually) attached to real names ... [but] Twitter trolls are rampant, too. And a retweet or quick comment isn’t exactly the same as a thoughtful response. So recently we’ve seen a couple other platforms experimenting with different ways of commenting, generally in the form of Q&A’s (see: Digg Dialog and Product Hunt Live). Medium has always existed somewhere in the middle of the platform-publisher continuum ... You Tell Me is an effort by Medium to remind users of the fact that Medium isn’t just for writing posts, but also for responding.... designed to role-model how the platform can be used... “Tech Is Eating Media” looks a lot like a straightforward Medium post... At the bottom of the post, though, are bolded questions and featured responses. - Meet “dialogue,” the new front in the Internet commenting wars » Nieman Journalism Lab
