It absolutely had a bot problem before! What Twitter were you using?

> never had this much of a bot problem

... How did you read this as meaning it never had a bot problem? They're claiming that it had _less_ of a bot problem, which certainly _feels_ true.

Does the difference matter, when the place was completely infested already before?

It was never a problem for me before and it's a problem for me now. That difference matters immensely to my experience of the platform.

Dismiss comments that start with ‘Nah.’

I've never seen a good quality comment starting with "Nah.", where did it come from and why did it become viral?
