I’m so glad the comments didn’t go the way I thought they would. Good job everyone!
Me when i get less than 40 votes but somehow more than 70 comments 😨
But the huge number of comments is because of just two people arguing for hours.
No it isn’t.
it surely is!
Source?
Your mom
Got 'em
Then one of the commenters gets reported, and now half the comments are “Removed by Mod”
You take that back!
Make me!
Paint my fence!
Or it could be constructive dialogue
poop fart
…about whether the first comment in the thread is AI or not.
Am I the only one who read lemmy speak in a sqeaky voice in my head?
The voices in my head are entirely based on the PFP that displays next to a post/comment. If your avatar is Spongebob, everything I read from you will be in Spongebob’s voice.
Awww yisssss
Hey man, 12 upvotes is a lot in my community!
My community has like, seven people in it so if I get twelve things are exciting.
Depends on the context meme? No. Interesting Post? Absolutely.
How many times do 11 people tell you they liked something you did IRL? 12 upvotes is still a lot.
Regularly but I’m a musician. I may not have heard it said explicitly, but they usually walk out humming whatever I played and that counts double.

I’m so glad to not be on other social media anymore. Posting on Facebook and having no engagement from the people you actually know and care about hurt a lot more than having a comment on Lemmy get ignored.
I have a dear friend who got pranked by someone. They set his Facebook posting options to post only at me and he didn’t notice for a couple years. He just wondered why no one else commented on his posts.
We’ve both got slightly oversized egos relative to our accomplishments, so that must have been rough.
I wish it would be as socially easy to vocally approve or encourage someone as it is to put a like.
I strongly believe people would be surprised.

Be the change you want to see in the world!
Already am!
Handing out compliments to strangers once in a while, and supporting good points
The best advice I ever got was this: if a compliment about someone pops into your head, you should tell them.
Like I have to add the caveat don’t be a creepy fuck (unless you know them and they like that) because there’s 8 billions of us and that means there are folk who are super creepy just by law of large populations. I’m talking about real compliments, not preludes to flirts or slaps.
Absolutely! I usually pick more neutral compliments and make sure I give them to both men and women alike.


Every time I see 3+ new inbox notifications I know I said something controversial. 😅
Hey maw come look zewm did it agin
A light .ml criticism or light support for a progressive dem can blow up your inbox
How dare you not think that bOtH sIdEs SaMe!? Why, I will have you know that Donald J Trump is likewise a black Indian woman, as explained in these theory books that I now demand that you read before you can show your face in this community again…
Unless you said something VERY “controversial”, and then you see nothing at all… ever again.
I think that Russia invaded Ukraine, not the other way around…
BANNED
Aww lookit you, all grown up now.
oh yeah. Some days, I pass out in a stupor & have to keep myself from checking notifications for as long as curiosity can stay away from the cat.
It’s nice when you eventually check…and it turns out to be constructive feedback or support. Even with downvotes. There’s an art to this.
I have learned to avoid posting to the dark souls communities when I’m in a mood.
What’s fun is waking up with a comment already to post on something you swear you clicked on in your sleep. My latest:
Work with [redacted] to develop a [redacted] over the6u o{p{by yet cy<furgoneta he utter 6
I think furgoneta might mean summer in sleepytimespeak
I disagree! How dare you!
Listen here you little shit…
What a classic .world take. GO READ A BOOK.
Comments give me dopamine*
*unless they give me cortisol
My paranoid ass: “lmao knew it”
Hey its me your cortisol
hey its me ur dopamine
Where you been? I wanted to go to sleep last night at a reasonable time.
Sup
In the spirit of spreading dopamine, I love this way of putting it and may steal this.
I wish I had something important to say in this moment

Same.
have an updoot :)
you have more than 12 now … which is not a lot apparently :(
Oh shit, I’m rich
But not comment rich.
How much is comment rich? 60? 70?
I’ve had those on here; let’s call it 100.
A Djin suddenly appears on your phone screen.
“Wish? Important!? Say!?!?”
“…HAD!?”
You got me bro.

Depends on what you’ve been hired to do.
Posts? It’s a staggering amount!
inches?
12!
