As the fediverse continues to grow, let's reflect on some of the things that we disliked most about posting/lurking on reddit and what we can do differently now that we have a chance to build something new.

This is the way.

IMO if you wanna say "this" then write something more than that to elaborate upon it.

"I'm a simple man. When I see a 'this' I upvote."

Hey there IntangibleSloth! If you agree with someone else's comment, please leave an upvote instead of commenting "This"! By upvoting instead, the original comment will be pushed to the top and be more visible to others, which is even better! Thanks! :)

I am a bot! If you have any feedback, please don't send me a message! More info:

@IntangibleSloth

soooome people are always >:( >:( about people commenting this when you agree with something, but tbh, it literally hurts nobody, why so angry lol?

Because the vote button is literally right there. If all you have to say is "this" without contributing further points or examples, it's better etiquette to just participate with your vote and leave the discussion for those that have things to say.

And while one person breaking etiquette isn't the end of the world, masses breaking etiquette creates the cesspit of lazy memeified circlejerky comment sections we had on reddit. It's a slow shift in culture, and it's one that we'll want to stave off as long as possible.

It adds nothing. It hurts, however trivial to you, the amount of valuable information on screen at once.
