also my wife is a huge dweeb and she's playing Sonic right now
thanks!
Wait I legitimately genuinely didn't think of that that's clever
haha! very happy to help, it really does work (for me, ymmv I suppose)
it's surprisingly hard to build the habit of commenting back up after existing in a culture of likes and re[tweets/blogs] for so long... I keep being unsure what tone to take, even! it's interesting to observe!
It's definitely taken me months to rebuild those muscles, and I'm still working on it! I keep having to remember that as something as simple as "this is really cool" or "beautiful!" on art absolutely counts.
It's good to interact that way, somehow! I've got to get into a slightly better way of doing it than my current method which is basically catch up with forty thousand tabs, and then go through replying/responding in batches (when it's not something that needs something more considered).
I really enjoy how you can't drop a like on comments. I think it makes it more likely that people will reply.
Thank you for this reminder, I have got to reprogram my brain to do more of the commenting (and replying to comments because for some reason that is even harder)
It is! It's also worth remembering that not all comments really need a reply, though (...I say as I respond to your comment—but I mean like, avoiding obligatory comment-as-comment-fav kind of patterns). That said, I do like especially like responding to comments when it looks like it could lead to a conversation!
This is true! I do look forward to being able to throw a little heart at comments, if only because it's nice to at least say "hey i saw your comment and appreciate it but also have no braincells to make a coherent response articulating that" at times aha. I think a part of me has forgotten how to conversation from years of being on sites that don't really encourage that kind of dialogue.
You being quick to comment helped a lot in getting to know you better and that's good imo
Exactly! Talking is how one makes friends! (And likewise here.)
