Neat idea! I love this kind of low-stakes online interactions, a bit like 1,000,000 checkboxes as well - makes me realize how many others there are out there and invokes a strange but nice feeling of community :)

#47> It (the MD5 hash) might be published in the future when a thought's count passes a certain threshold (TBD). This might make it possible to recover certain short thoughts that were popular.
This makes little sense. Recovering a random preimage of an MD5 hash is marginally easier [1] than a (128-bit truncated) SHA256 hash, but this won't recover any sensible message.
Recovering a sensible (short) message is equally hard for both hashes.
