Thank fuck, maybe I can go back to being a lurker lol

I've probably posted more here in just the last couple months than my entire decade+ years old Reddit account LMAO

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I tend to lurk just because I have nothing to add to the conversation lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 18 hours ago

If you at least upvote you aren't lurking as that counts as engagement.

I don't let that stop me.

My app tells me I upvoted you 12 times in the last 10 days. Thank you

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What app is that? Does it also show me other's up votes?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

vger.app but you need to enable the feature in your settings. It will show next to their usernames

[–] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago

It's great! Let's me quickly see how I get along with or not. :D

[–] [email protected] 6 points 23 hours ago

As a fellow lurker, I sincerely thank you and everyone else that has been putting in the extra effort to post threads and comments!

Same here dude I've posted ridiculous amounts on [email protected] and did a highlight by highlight match thread on [email protected] once. That last one was painful af.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

relatable. I started lemdro.id cause I wanted to lurk lol

Noice. Tbh I didn't post too much on /r/Android as I liked being a mod on it as I'm a huge Android nerd; I think people would have called mod abuse or something if they only saw my posts in the feed lol. People liked to be overtly critical of the modding anyway on that subreddit.

Thank you for your service 🫡

Fellow lurker at heart here. Kinda heartwarming to see a bunch of lurkers doing things out of their comfort zone!

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I’ve probably posted more here in just the last couple months than my entire decade+ years old Reddit account LMAO

Same. On topics on than Romeposting(tm) I'd love to go back to being a lurker and only an occasional contributor. I imagine it'll be a while before that day comes, though.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago

Honestly thank you for your service Pug, there is a +75 next to your name for me for a reason

BOATS BOATS BOATS

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 day ago

Thank you for doing your part in getting the ball rolling!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

Yeah! I’ve been doing the same. I actually find myself thinking “I haven’t participated in a conversation in over a week. I better find something to comment on.”

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 day ago

I recognize your name and appreciate your efforts, fam!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Thank your for your service. 🙏 Building a community takes work. Let's hope this one is more resilient to corpo-lobotomize than Reddit, Digg and Slashdot.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

Likewise

I've literally posted over 3k comments and over 300 posts since moving over here

I've been busy over here lol

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

lmao posting in communtities from my different accounts (not to the same communities, like alts for keeping notifcations on topics seperate) to help build up my future lurking places

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Even though i have been much more active here than on reddit, i have way less karma

Every time i tried to calculate the percentage of how much less, it said something about dbzer0.com for some reason

Do I detect a divide by zero joke? Nice!
