It's easier not to lurk when the odds of getting a strangely hostile reply over nothing important goes down
Agreed. I always felt like I had to add five different disclaimers to my comments to avoid bad faith arguments and angry responses. Wasn’t a fun experience at all and often lead to me just deleting comments.
I may have been a little... overzealous when I wrote my beehaw application but I echo this point when I submitted
It's going to take a lot of deconditioning to not be a lurker!
That's quite philosophical really. Beautiful text.
It was so bad on reddit that i was surprised if i got a friendly/helpful reply
I DISAGREE!
