As someone who has never used twitter what di you mean?
To be “ratio’d” or to note a ratio in regards to Twitter means that the reply received more likes/retweets than the original or higher up tweet.
To add to that. The reason this is noted is that Twitter only has upvotes and no downvotes. So, something could have hundreds of likes, which looks good, but when compared to a reply against it with thousands you can see the meassure of public disagreement.
I thought that meant that a comment got more replies than likes
This. To my understanding, "ratio" has always been replies and QRTs vs likes and RTs. The madder people are, the more they want to say.
I definitely see more people ratioed by my definition than the other; when a ton of replies happen, it's harder for a single one to get enough traction to overtake the OP, but you can still see that everyone is mad.
there are many ratios to be considered
I never fully got it as a twitter user, but it has something to do with the ratio of likes I believe. The one person has hundreds where the other has 10s of thousands.
