The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Pin the most helpful viewer comment on Friday’s music cover video: choose a comment that adds context to your arrangement, thanks a viewer who suggested a chord change, and invites others to check the chord chart in the description. Write the pinned comment copy to highlight the chord tip and a quick thank-you to the commenter, keeping it under 60 words.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before you pin a comment on the cover video, surface what will make it useful: list three criteria for a comment worth pinning (clarifies, invites action, represents community tone), identify the top candidate from the latest comments, and draft three short pin options — one that promotes the chord chart, one that highlights a fan story, and one that steers conversations away from a recent argument. Make each under 50 words.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

Debate in comments heated up and needs a pin

Comments on the cover video just spiraled into a debate about tuning. I don’t know if pinning a comment will calm things or amplify the argument. I’m afraid pinning the wrong comment will look like I’m taking sides. What’s the likely outcome of pinning neutral guidance versus pinning a fan’s opinion, and which is the better move now?

Become — change the pattern

I frequently waste pins on low-value comments

Over several uploads I’ve been pinning whatever gets likes, and now the pinned comment rarely helps new viewers or saves me time moderating. Where am I losing influence with pins, and what one rule should I adopt so every pinned comment advances the channel’s goals?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
