Unironically that's part of how to elevate the discussion. People need to speak more freely. Related to the post damarcus linked, purple also need to be less hostile.

Back on the subreddit there was a lot of "don't worry about the quality, no lurking! You must post! Everyone post!" Type of attitude. We should encourage participation!

No, it is not. There is no value to be gained in purposefully adding low-quality discussion. You could instead add something of significance. That would be elevating the discussion. Low-quality discussion makes the quality of the discussion lower, actually. That's what words mean.

And in the link you are talking about, one of the points is "don't ignore incorrect ideas or bad behavior", which is exactly what I'm advocating for.

People need to speak more freely.

Nope. People who don't know what they are talking about should silently read more. No investigation, no right to speak. If they are going to actually think about the things they are saying, then yes.

Back on the subreddit

Oh, in that case, you've convinced me.
