But if I comment then I’ll break my 9 year record of being a lurker on social media!

Can’t we just upvote?

Plot twist: All of the “bot accounts” were actually a huge influx of Reddit users who were lurking. By removing the accounts / defederating with their instances, we’ve sent them all back to Reddit, ensuring Reddit can pull through the mass exodus.

But, I’m a lurker.

FUCK SPEZ

Don’t care.

This is not a strictly commercial network. Do we really need useless comments or posts just to increase some stats numbers? I’d think about quality contents instead.

I’ve already posted more here than my last 4 years on Reddit.

You’re not my dad!

Doing my part 🫡

But it’s scary

Lemmy only counts users who posted or commented as active users

You gotta post or comment!

Sure, I guess I’m active, but I will go back to lurking
