is it kinda weird to like (heart button) all posts you see?
i get a little dopamine boost when i see someone liking one of my posts, but i dont really know if the ettiquete is different for other people, like...

i give a like to show that i am reading/undertanding what they are saying, ya know?
not every time i got a comment, but i wanna show that im following their train of thought.


You must log in to comment.

in reply to @Kawa-Kir's post:

Personally, I think it's a little weird and may send the wrong message. I feel like you should save liking a post for posts you... you know, like. For example, if someone liked every single one of my posts for example I would definitely wonder what's up with that. It might not mean anything, in your case it's because you're thoughtfully trying to make other people happy, but it definitely would come off as sussy to me.

Yeah, thats kinda of a worry of mine.

i dont want to seem like a stalker or anything, i usually scroll one or two pages to get a feel of what they like and if i should follow them or not, and i just by reflex end up clicking like.

i wanna show that im listening, but not like i am putting a stethoscope to their bedroom window, ya know?

Yeah, I get you. Online posts just aren't really the same as a 1 on 1 convo for showing you're listening, so it both has different expectations and can be harder to show you're paying attention. For me, I just assume even if a post didn't get any likes/comments that someone read it. But I also have one of those "you should just join the conversation if you have something to say" kind of mindsets. Maybe you're overthinking it a bit.

The occasional like every now and then is appreciated, though. πŸ˜‰

I've been overthinking since i started thinking.
If one thinks, one exists, my brain would make RenΓ© Descartes blush.

jokes aside, yeah, i get that, i should get on that mindset of "Someone probably read it and just didnt feel like interacting". just feels a bit weird to scream and not have a confirmation on being heard, but im working on that.

thx for the advice pal ( owo)-b
