Along with everyone else's great points, I'm so glad I don't have to suffer through another "thanks for the gold, kind stranger!" Or yet another painful comment chain of "puns" that are more like weak rhyming/word association, often reusing the same tired phrases. That entire place is so boring and uncreative.
Long live Lemmy!
I disagree, gently, i like chains, they are fun, and sometimes creative, even the ones i know (like rick roll), maybe this gives a kick to my slightly troll-y side, sense it is harmless and fun (at least for me, fun is subjective). I even liked the thanks for gold, it is not like the gold means anything, it just makes the community feel more live
That's perfectly valid. With the gold thing, I was referring to the fact that people say it verbatim as I typed, (seemingly) every time. IMO it feels less genuine when someone doesn't thank another using their own words.
By the way, your respectful disagreement is another reason why I like Lemmy. Courtesy seems to be more common over here :D
I wish we could give people some form of awards though, perhaps remove the microtransaction feature (although honestly, awards are actually an ethical feature for raising funds as they're mainly cosmetic and don't track you)
