Just checking to see if this thread is still relevant…

And here I am: 6 hours after OP and still able to post the second comment 😄

I honestly like this slower pace. Reminds me of good old times posting in online forums… 😍

It's made even worse when the post is something you have a lot of experience with but the echo chamber has been established for a poor narrative.

E.g. I work for a company that has John Deere as one of their franchises. There are a lot of things I don't agree with that JD has done but there's also a lot of just straight up incorrect info out there and that is normally what is parroted first. By the time I normally comment, as someone who actually deals with the product daily, it's too late and gets buried.

Although it does make the feed a little confusing. I initially thought that the app I was using simply bugged out, rather than the threads just being active a few days after being created.

Wonder if Lemmy will develop the same kind of taboo against necroposting that Reddit and forums had back in the day. It was generally frowned upon to revive an old thread, even though you could feasibly do it.
