I do this on comments. But not this comment.
i also didn’t do this on this comment.
I did it on this comment, but then I went back and wrote this.
I type like 1000 words, then I realized I’m gonna look so stupid if nobody reads it and it remains at 1 vote, so I just delete it before I embarass myself.
(I don’t care about upvotes, I just want to get the acknowledgement that someone read it so I know my time wasn’t wasted.)
Edit: I wish there was a “read” button. It’s for the times when you acknowledge reading it but you don’t like it enough to upvote it.
Can someone add this to Lemmy? 👀
If you believe your point is worth making, then your time isn’t wasted. There are more lurkers than commenters, and your words might have an impact of them without you realizing it.
Say it because you believe in it, and not because you want validation.
I’ve got ya, my dude.
What you’re going to the feature?
That would have to be an automatic action, cause I ain’t hitting a button when reading comments. I don’t even upvote/downvote enough
I envy you, I wish for ability to write thousands of words with ease.
Had the uno reverse of this the other day. I don’t want to respond to this to justify myself, but damned if I’m gonna let this mf have the last word.
Lol. Hard to fight that one.
Often. Even more often I realize there is no point since the recipient is either a troll or incapable of rational thought.
Some things aren’t worth engaging with, like when you know the other person can’t or doesn’t want to be reasoned with, or just wants to get a rise out of you.
Yes, I write more than twice the work emails than I send. I spend 15 minutes on slack composing a reasoned response with examples and references then edit it down to one sentence. Because I know from bitter experience noone reads long form, at least, not for work. They’d rather spend weeks back and forth on one liners with days in between responses, or only when prompted, than answer one email properly and the whole thjng sorted in a day. Even this is too long. But I’m going to hit submit before the urge to edit overhwlems me.
Yes, all the fucking time.

all. the. time.
“Wait a minute this dude comments on piss drinking subs I dont owe this mf shit about taste wtf”
More like “Oh god, what if they reply? I don’t have the time for this.”

… … …
Fuck it.
Fuck that shit, I use AI to summarize basically all my overly extended work emails
