I don't know if keeping the usernames visible is a good or a bad thing at this point, but it kinda sucks for insecure people who don't wanna get roasted lol

I delete comments if I see that somebody else already said the same thing or if I realize I was misinformed when I made the comment. Neither case adds anything useful.

As an Australian, with 8-10 shots of alcohol in my system I seem to get the same response I got on Reddit.

I'm just talking shit and people are getting offended. At least here I wake up with 1-2 replies telling me how wrong and foolish I am instead of Reddit where I woke up with multiple replies and downvotes because everyone is so self-righteous.

It's why 4Chan was good.. "WAS" good I could get tipsy, Talk a bunch of shit, call the French, Italians, Greek and Turks a bunch of arse holes. 1 or 2 of them would call me the N word or call me a cunt and tell me to kill myself and I could just laugh and move on.

Reddit you say "Lol I don't like Nazis* or "Israel is a terrorist state" and you get banned..

Here I can fairly call Israel a terrorist state but people still get offended if I call France, Italy or Greece useless.

Don't get offended.. I'm a drunk Australian arsehole.. Insult me back!

Being roasted isn't the end of the world. You will emerge cooked but flavorful.

Seriously though just remember we are all just bots anyway /s

Wait, yall arent dogs as well?

You don't get roasted, people just assume you said something naughty.

What's funny is that with the wonders of federation you can downvote deleted comments that you never saw the text on.

I delete my comments regularly few weeks after posting them, because often my paranoia kicks in, and I feel like I have to at least cover my tracks a bit. I do however, do my best to leave up all comments that answer something or have relevant information.
When I switch accounts to a new one, I delete my full comment history, though. I know this is bad for the continuity and history and everything, but I have not figured out ways to lessen my paranoia. And it does not help, that I somewhat lack in emotions, and do not care much, what people I do not know, think about me or my actions. So my options are, either keep doing this, or stop commenting. So far the first one has won.

Seems like good practice. I just recently learned that your up/downvotes are also visible for everyone, which seems odd and sketchy privacy wise. Which result in way less voting by me.

Here's hoping the other wolf doesn't win 🤘🏼

I thought of deleting a comment here for the pun's sake, but someone did it already.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 50 points 1 day ago (8 children)

People who delete their post after getting an answer are bad citizens of the community.

If everyone did that it would be a wasteland.

If I see you do it regularly I will block your posts so as to not waste time.

I think this is a good mentality to have. We need to preserve and archive the Internet as best we can. I really wanted to delete my old Reddit account after the API change, but I realized that it would make any tech support threads useless if I just deleted all of my potentially helpful comments. I've been there on the other end when looking up a tech support questions and the OP just deleted the solution I was looking for, that was the worst feeling!

Unless it’s legitimately a mispost (egregiously wrong place) I’ll usually just edit if I was wrong and let it stand for posterity so other fediverse users aren’t left wondering

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (3 children)

If I post in the wrong place I delete it. Don't care how you look at me.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What of someone posts empty comments as an answer to a hot thread, then deletes it, to make people think the person knew the answer?

I know what I'm doing today!

No troll unturned.
