There’s no incentive to virtue signal either, though.
For most users there’s no incentives of any kind, and they go to their default, which is alternatingly butthurt and mildly helpful. A minority are sadistic, virtue signaling or similar. And of course, everyone is horny.

Of course there is incentive for online virtue signaling - all the likes and shares and attention.
It seems to me positive attention comes out of compassion as well, unless it only counts when there’s no extrinsic motivation for it.
There is quite a lot of compassionate-seeming exchanges you can find on here, right?
Absolutely, and I’m happy to hear you see it that way too. Online platforms don’t really incentivize that though. That’s just my lukewarm take on that
