I never post much on reddit, I go there for entertainment etc.
When I came here in 2021 I saw the content drought and started posting links to stuff, mostly what I had found on reddit. I don’t know if that’s the best way to do it, but at least there is something to look at here.
Now the situation has gotten better, but I already see it slowing down a bit, or conversation mostly revolving around reddit and the API situation (or this post, lol).
Please consider posting random or interesting shit, memes, whatnot. Don’t feel pressure about the quality of the posts, the voting system generally takes care of that and I think that there is no shame in posting something that doesn’t take off.
Tl;dr: If nobody posts, nobody can comment or lurk
Same here, every other time I posted to reddit I’d get ripped to shreds it felt like and I’m old enough to remember getting pwnted on Yahoo Answers and Usernet as a child.
Mood, reddit conditions you to be combative and ready for debate, it’s hard to transition out of that.
