“Ratioed” on Twitter is when a post has more comments than likes/favorites/whatever. Twitter doesn’t have downvotes. So, more comments than heart things suggests the post is disliked or controversial, as it’s presumed that otherwise people commenting would have also “liked” it or whatever it’s called on Twitter.
Exactly, so at the end it's just comparing two numbers anyway.
Yeah, it’s just that Twitter has one less action. I guess there’s also retweets.
