Ooo, what's my little score there?
I stumbled on someone's Fediverse stat tracker the other day and I saw this username was like the 27th top poster/commenter and it blew my mind! I feel my main subject matter is so niche. For someone who came here to lurk silently and not participate, I've really missed the goalpost! ๐
I'm honestly happy to have gotten to casually know so many of you. This place largely takes me back to the internet of 20-ish years ago. I wish we could get some cooler heads in the news/politics stuff, and the tensions between World and DB0 have been bumming me out lately, but otherwise most people here are top notch.
My client (voyager) tracks how many up-/downvotes I give someone and I gave you about 2k upvotes so far.
You said you came to lurk silently, Iโd say mission failed successfully :P ;)
Nice, I must be doing something right
Out of all the things I've failed at, this is one of the one I regret the least! ๐
