Why do the chats die as soon as I chat there?

Maybe your interjecting into a convo and not saying something worth responding to? I would imagine that making a joke in text isn't that funny because its not spoken its read.
I think this - and the dozens of other reasons - is it.
I'm in a handful of reasonably active group chats, and if one of my absolute banger messages doesn't get a response, welll... maybe it just wasn't that good. Not awful in as much that people leave the group en maase, but just not nearly as funny or interesting to other folk as it was to me.
It may be that it was the group chat equivalent of clicking a Lemmy post, thinking "huh, cool", and moving on.
It may be that the post was so balanced and well presented from most angles, that there isn't really anything to add.
It could be that my post went against the grain of the flow of conversation or the tastes of the majority of the group, and people chose to ignore it rather than tell me to fuck off.
It could be that people's lives have run away with them, nobody gave any serious mind to the post when they read it, and it would just be a bit weird replying twelve or 24 hours after the post.
Any which way - if the group is still active, and you've not been called out publically or privately, then people likely don't give a toss and have moved on - no harm no foul.
