My issue is: how can this be implemented?

When threaders start looking beyond thread count. Quality can be subjective, but can't be compromised in any way.

One way we can solve this is by putting more emphasis on engagement. Engagement should have more weight when determining who gets on the leadership board.

engagement score should be more comprehensive. Like how many people spoken to, how many followers, how many replies of replies he/she gets, average character per thread; simply going by numbers will inflate this place with garbage

i do not agree to this though, long form post are more informative

The short form can also be informative, thought-provoking, intriguing, etc. only when u wanna make it, and for that perhaps we need to loo beyond numbers.

But little research is poured on a short form post unless a lick is attched

That is up to the threader. They can make it or break it. It's not about the limitation of characters, it's more about ur input. Input means ur research, reading habit, and analysis.

well, i still do not see why short post creation should be earning than the long form post content creator

we are not talking about who should earn more.

but earning equally is a no-no for me still

Informative don't bring in ad revenue.
Value is determined by utility.
Thread outperforms long from contact on almost every metric.
I have barely read 20 articles, most of which are generic and repetitive.

I don't really think it would work that way. At least if it were, then it would have to be from the ad-revenue itself and not hive rewards

Why so? Should resources not be allocated to the platform that brings in the most value in terms of users and engagement?

Because there will be reward disagreements. I don't like going into it, but I feel that if it's more than just 1/2 threads a day, they might come knocking.

Agreed. But how about having a $ Leo-specific curation account? Threads get substantial Leo vote from an account with little hive power.
They earn Leo (not hive)

That would work

I think you have point. Leofinace has done something that showed they care. But let's watch more
