Do comments first. There’s so much spam that almost looks legit because of how many upvotes they have.

And actual scams with 300+ upvotes. Not just copied comments that get edited layer, but entire chains directing people to whatsapp numbers.

I’d still take scam comments over “who is still listening in 2024?!” For a super popular song that came out in 2023 or for a timeless classic like Michael Jackson’s thriller

Those and “First!!!1!!” are obnoxious, but not actively harmful.
