No, you have to type the whole post out. Re-read it to bask in the insightfulness, and correct the usage errors and autocorrects. Then decide that youβve said your peace, and donβt really want some numbnut responding with a poorly thought out, single sentence reply. Delete the text, knowing you had the chance to vent.
Then go find another post and do the same. At 5pm you can then close your browser, look at your desk, and wonder why you didnβt get any work done that day.
The single biggest missing feature of Lemmy is a "disable inbox replies" button
spell one easy word wrong "Y'know what. Maybe I'm the idiot today" delete post
Iβve found that the smaller size of Lemmy both gets me to comment more, and gets me to abandon more iffy comments when a single upvote seems more significant here than on certain similar huge websites.
The contrarians are still here in large numbers even given the smaller community sizes. No one can see your account score anyway, I think the factor most affecting my posting is my small voice is much louder here
No they aren't. There aren't any contrarians on the Fediverse. I'm going to need you to cite your sources.
Your total score is 766, my friend. ;)
It still doesnβt matter, but you can see it if you want.
Your numbers have no power over me friend
Good to know it's viewable somewhere lol
Am contrarian can confirm
Iβve abandoned the value of upvotes anyway and just say shit that I find funny. Not nasty stuff, just like purposely missing the point or trolling like Iβm stupid or something. It causes no harm and itβs not like Iβm missing out on money.
I like that upvotes and downvotes mean nothing here other than for that single comment.
Me too! Be warned though, at least half the apps seem to want to throw an aggregate at you.
Yup, but since there's no consistency, nobody cares about it.
And woe to the lowly commentator who suggests a middle opinion, this sparking the ire of both A and B.
Hey FUCK You!
Don't threat me with a good time
I'll give you a better time!
I draw the line at being the middle of no more than five people. Otherwise it gets weird.
Oh, a centrist, are ya? Get 'em, lads!
Oh Christ. I got harangued a couple months ago for suggesting that a dude maybe didnβt hear another dude in a loud environment. π

the number of textareas that i have closed for the betterment of humanity outweighs my actual postings by orders of magnitude

Me upvoting both sides of the struggle session while refusing to give my opinion 
Here's the thing. You said a jackdaw is a crow...
Discretion is the better part of valor.
