Yeah, I think links should cost more, and serial linkers could pay a bit more too, I see a lot of posts with links and not a single comment, accounts just looking to post the next bitcoin mag or coindesk artcle, like okay at least drop your take in the comments or add some value
I agree with you, I must say I was guilty at the beginning to just post a link without context.
To the link posters defense, when you add a link to SN, there is no field to add a description of any sort. Am I missing something?
That would be a good start to even make the link's description compulsory, even though we all know it can be gamed easily :( At least the SM community will communicate its intent.

Lol I was also a serial link poster but I've stopped and that would be cool if there's an optional hot take section when you post a link and if you don't fill it you pay more just so it encourages user-generated unique content and discussion around the link
