Two Hat: Stop tweaking your game and start fixing your community Link preview image

Toxic behavior in social media and similar platforms is not a new problem, but it’s worth pointing out that there are financial as well as ethical incentives for platform-owners to improve it. You can increase engagement through endless A/B tested UI tweaks, but you might be better off improving your community.

Key quote: “[P]eople are 300% more likely to never return to games or platforms where they experienced toxic behaviour. Conversely, players are three times more likely to return after positive interactions.”
