Learn to not care about being downvoted. Unless there's some dumb rule about too many downvotes leads to disciplinary action. You want echo chambers, I'm trying to get away from echo chambers, as are a lot of others i imagine

At one point reddit also had no queen community. Someone created it and built it into what it is now. You can do the same here, that's kinda the point.
What do you think JOI is?
I wonder if it's them expecting some sort of apocalypse level event that wipes out electricity but they think their stores are somehow going to keep on keeping on, so this way they can do inventory and sales by candlelight.
And this is why people feel like they constantly need to validate their opinions by repeating them, so people like you don't think everyone suddenly doesn't care.
This is one of the big reasons I finally left Facebook and reddit and all the mainstream shit. And I'm starting to see it's just a social (media) problem and not something I can escape by switching platforms. At least not easily, and I imagine if I start going on a block run now it'll only end up consuming nearly all my time soon enough and just no. I guess the only thing left is to only browse specific communities that actively moderate those sorts of comments, or just give up being social online entirely. Kinda sucks when you have social anxiety and these online spaces are the one place you feel least constrained by it.
She went in one side, got turned around, and came back out the same end. Happens to the best of us
What is your instance exactly? Like what can you tell me about it? Cause I think it may align with a lot of my interests. I get that it's slrpnk.net and I can go to it and see what sorts of posts there are, but what I'm wondering is what can be said about it from someone that actively uses it that one may not see through a cursory browse

3% for what? Where did that number even come from?
Yeah, I don't get that one either. Granted, I'm not registered or ever plan to vote unless/until direct democracy exists, but how do they determine if you're in the right district, precinct, etc. without confirming your identity? I would think that making sure people are doing things correctly and fairly would be a thing most people that aren't trying to cheat the system would want.
Not everything needs to be put in words though. Simply saying "I agree" with nothing more to the comment is just wasting everyone's time, except for the single person they replied to getting an ego boost. The thing about comments is they're public, they're for more than just the recipient. You're trying to make comments like DMs, where people can privately circlejerk until they're both spent.
