I do get a few low effort comments that may hope for something, but they won't get much

I call them "vote fishers". hundreds of comments like "👍" in hopes of a vote. Genuine interaction is in fact much more rewarding. This reminds me of something. There's a Ted Talk by Celeste Headley titled how to have a great conversation. It's an oldie but goodie. The best way to have an amazing conversation is to really listen and be genuinely interested in the conversation. You can even disagree! but if you're genuinely listening, you will undoubtedly end up having a great conversation.
