MODERATORS
I assumed it was a lack of bots. Which is a good thing.
That, and we skew heavily towards introverts. So we're not going to talk unless you hold a knife to our head.
Them: "How's it going"?
Me: looks at shoelaces quietly, unsure if they're talking to me or the empty wall behind me.
writes a long comment
immediately erase it
Haha, yeah sometimes it feels like I'm commenting then deleting just because I like the effort of thinking out something and writing it down, but I have no desire to communicate with others.
It happens on Reddit way more because the libs will steadfastly refuse to learn anything so there's no reason to comment because they'll clutch their pearls when you try and explain how the world actually is to them.
I was literally tempted to delete this because, do I want the massive social commitment of one or two people commenting on my comment?
