Well, I generally like to respond to both dissenting and consenting voices alike. If someone took the time to say something - anything! - on my post, I want to honor it, even if I don't agree with what they said. (Okay, the only exception are bots and comments without much content value, such as "nice post!").
But that's only here on Hive. On mainstream social media I have cut down my commenting to close to zero. I don't see a point in feeding the trolls, no matter which side they stand on. Ha, I've even told people off for trolling, even though I could agree with the point they were trolling for.
So yeah, Engagement tokens seem like a good idea. Or any other tipping token for that matter. I'm not up-to-date with them, so no idea which is the best. I've heard a lot of good things about Pizza, and apparently Wine stopped working. My tip of choice is !BEER which seems to be still up and running. Cheers!
