Can’t we just upvote?
I wanna give you a meaningless gold. Here, take it 🪙
But, I’m a lurker.
I’m doing my part 💪
Here’s my single comment contribution.
Would you like to learn more?
That’s what I was lookin’ to see :)
this is the way
Bananas
But if I comment then I’ll break my 9 year record of being a lurker on social media!
Plot twist: All of the “bot accounts” were actually a huge influx of Reddit users who were lurking. By removing the accounts / defederating with their instances, we’ve sent them all back to Reddit, ensuring Reddit can pull through the mass exodus.
Nah lol, I’m an admin and could see all the email addresses they were using. Fake af
tbf disposable email services are a thing
But my email is a Fastmail masked email, it’s randomly generated l, so it might look fake as well ¯_(ツ)_/¯
How is upvoting/downvoting not considered being active? :/
Yeah, for a fair comparison the standard definition of “active user” is just viewing posts. Not sure why Lemmy sets the bar so high. Maybe they don’t care about vanity stats - besides mild curiosity, I couldn’t care less.
Posting or commenting seems more like “contributing users” and posts like this just encourage unhelpful noise.
This is my point exactly
I mean, I’ve had a Reddit account for 13-14 years, maybe even longer, as I was a lurker who bookmarked different subreddits, prior to making an account. In those years, I have commented maybe 5 times in total. So you dont get to tell me what to do, and I certainly won’t be commenting on this post.
This. I never commented on Reddit and will continue to do the same here. No one can change my mind!
Hell yeah, not comment gang represent!
But it’s scary
Ok
This is not a strictly commercial network. Do we really need useless comments or posts just to increase some stats numbers? I’d think about quality contents instead.
Agreed. Quality > Quantity in this case
Whelp, that’s me out
I’m here… Even if I don’t really understand how to use this platform - yet.
