Lurker checking in to acknowledge my shame. I like that the fediverse has better discourse than reddit and I want to contribute to it. It’s just that I have been a lurker for so long that it’s gonna take some time to start actively engaging.

I was you on other platforms. Managed to participate here a lot more.

Thank your for the service!

Lurking isn't always bad. I am of the philosophy that it's best to speak only when you have something to say. We already have Xitter and Snapchat for meaningless torrents of words.

to me the fact that nobody really cares helps.
Sometimes that same fact makes me delete a whole paragraph but when I do post, i don't stress out about it.

Sometimes the thread is to old for me to comments.

Leave me alone, furiously masturbating in the corner over here.

Hey man, I'm all over the comment sections. I am no content creator, just an armchair critic and pundit. The peanut gallery is important too y'know. :)
