More people are still in the lurking stage of their lemmy evolution.
I think I comment quite a lot but rarely post. does that count as lurking?
Nope, not lurking
I feel like user reply more than on reddit.
Nah. You’re participating in conversations, or potentially starting one.
I comment a little bit but I feel like actively making posts takes time I don’t really have room ght now.
That’s why I’m being a lil chatty boi here. Pretend I said something clever
Ha ha ha, really? Wow, you’re fascinating!
To shreds, you say?
And his wife?
To shreds, you say?

I am still sad that Facebook buried this. I know it’s still there, but it used to be much more prominent.
Ugh, I have cringy memories from myself as a kid in the earlier days of Facebook, overusing that poke feature because I was a dumb, extremely awkward kid who had no idea how to socialize so I mostly just annoyed people. Had such a bad “lol im so raaaandum” phase.
yeah, poke was fun
You say it’s still there?
The ones I hate are “AITA” posts that are uploaded by a Reddit/Lemmy bot… Like, who tf are we supposed to reply to?
just treat it as a creative writing piece (which most of the time it is anyway)
I just ban any of the content reposting bots.
I missed the comment count at first and thought he was mad about the external link.
Mad it’s an external link with no comments to read instead of visiting the link.
Nah. U first!
I’ll give you an upvote and this thumbs up emoji 👍🏼
