You should check how comments work on niconico.

I think the same blog used to show you the cursor position of every other reader on your screen. Surprised that's been removed.

Streaming comments on YouTube give it a run for its money, what absolute garbage.
Do you mean the live chat? Those are, appropriately, for live streams. They do replay afterwards as depending on the type of stream the video may not make complete sense without them (and they're easy enough to fold if they don't have any value e.g. premieres).

Thankfully that can be collapsed.
But I realized something by attempting to read this article several times first.
If I ever want to write an article and reduce peoples ability to critically engage with the argument in it I should add a focus pulling animation that thwarts concerted focus.
It's like the blog equivalent of public speakers who ramble their audience into a coma.
