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
Nah. You’re participating in conversations, or potentially starting one.
I feel like user reply more than on reddit.
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
To shreds, you say?
And his wife?
To shreds, you say?
Ha ha ha, really? Wow, you’re fascinating!
The best part is adding that first comment and seeing it explode after.
(Explode being a very very relative term in this case 😜)
Look at this guy with

5 points.
It wasn’t a first (or even early) comment, I’m just encouraging participation on undiscovered posts. It’s super rewarding to ask a simple question and have engaging conversation unfold around you on a post that might otherwise die.
They don’t get hot if we don’t comment!
It’s fun to actually have interaction invisibility here. On Reddit my comments were usually permanently buried at the bottom by the time I saw a post.
The ones I hate are “AITA” posts that are uploaded by a Reddit/Lemmy bot… Like, who tf are we supposed to reply to?
I just ban any of the content reposting bots.
Do you have a list of them?
deleted by creator
Yeah, now AITA become a wasteland that no one post or comment anymore because it’s flooded with bots content.
Luckily someone can create another AITA in another instance and we can still interact with it.
just treat it as a creative writing piece (which most of the time it is anyway)
Block the bot
poke
I am still sad that Facebook buried this. I know it’s still there, but it used to be much more prominent.
yeah, poke was fun
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.
You say it’s still there?
Nah. U first!
Sorry, this is entirely my fault.
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.
I’ll give you an upvote and this thumbs up emoji 👍🏼
what is the arrow button do
It means it’s a link to a webpage on another site
and why is that bad?
I guess whoever made the meme doesn’t like outside links? I don’t really know.
Sorry I’m bad with talking!
