I’m a long time lurker and kinda have a similar anxiety, tbh. Whenever I think I have an insightful or funny comment, someone has already made exactly the same point but better. Hexbear’s posters are just too powerful lol.
I think you’re right that it’s a form of digital social anxiety. I don’t know if this will help you at all but I’ve personally found that trying to let go of my own expectations and just appreciate that this community exists at all makes it much easier to interact with.
I love your dog btw, please give them lots of pets!
