Being able to comment on old posts is interesting.

Could lead to problems or more interesting things.

I like it. It encourages people to use threads for deeper discussions rather than make a new post.

I hope that we see a culture that appreciates this rather than the often mindless complaints of necroing you'd see in forums.

Necroposting is cool (when you actually have something to say)

Wowza. Forgot all about this

See what I mean, neat

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Ha! You were kinda right, huh?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I dig it as well, especially if the post is more technical and further comments help clarify things.

Could lead to problems

this is why I sort by "New Comments" for the Moderator View

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Been receiving replies for over a year

Which is still neat

Lol yea. Very nice that Lemmy supports old threads unlike Reddit, the forums-style "New Comments" sort is such a good alternative to the other sorting methods. It should reduce the "need" for reposts, especially combined with Lemmy's nice auto-search when making a post.
