+1 Although, I'm kind of focusing in on the word "devalue". That feels like we're treating commenting/fandom as a zero sum game where proper value should be parceled out sparingly, but like...I have no way to tell which of the comments that I've received are real gushing and which are fake gushing. I treasure every comment that I receive, even the ones that are just a heart. Every single time I write a comment, I have to psych myself up for it because being effusive in writing is hard for me even when I feel effusive. So all of my comments feel "fake" in that sense, but the enjoyment that I had is very real.
