>"low-effort comments"
I have never heard that term used before, prior to reading this thread...
All I know is that "low-effort comments" -- is going into my 2026 lexicon!
(Admittedly this comment, my comment, the words I have written, above -- is admittedly somewhat of a "low-effort comment" in and of itself(!) A low-effort comment about other low-effort comments (a "meta" low-effort comment, if you will!), but I digress... I guess at times "we all fall short of the glory of the highest of high effort comments"... :-) )
Anyway, "low-effort comment" is a great piece of terminology, isn't it? :-)
It's going into my 2026 lexicon...
