I wish there were a way to mute notifications on posts alone. I always forget that I posted something, and the number of seemingly spontaneous replies makes me wonder whether I’ve pissed several people off.

Only a portion is crossposts from .ml comms to non-.ml comms to grow off.ml alternatives and reduce .ml's influence because of the toxic behavior of its admins so that other instance admins in the future can make a defederation decision without having to worry about cutting off from "big .ml comms"

I aim for a minimum ratio of 1:2 crosspost to "organic" posts so a majority of my posts are in fact my own lmao

Officially, I just try to avoid replying just for the sake of replying.

Unofficially, there may or may not be an illemmyminati

please do not stop spamming reposts

torquay bro nos dos

If something like that happens to me I'm just clicking Mark all as read.
Edit: Never post when you are asleep.

When you're new to Lemmy but you make one pro Ukraine comment on ml/grad/hexbear.

Does this not stress you out? It's stressing me out!

I jest. Love seeing you around. Everywhere

Got damn, is that like that every morning for you, or do you just not open your inbox LMAO

Piefed has that feature!

Holy shit, that's quite impressive. Gotta crank up those numbers!

What does that have to do with my weight?

If you’re not going to reply why even post.

I kinda just stopped opening it. I check most my comments and posts anyways.

But idk sometimes I post something I know will make some people (bigots, tankies, or capitalists) mad so I kind just prefer not to check.

So yeah. That 700 is like one month of work

For one, there shouldn't be a requirement for a poster to also constantly reply to all replies. It's cool when it happens, and I do it myself from time to time when I have the energy to do so

All contributions to the Lemmy-verse, no matter how small or how many replies the OP does, are welcome. It's important to attracting more users

For 2, by "select few" I mean as in something that actually contributes to the convo rather than just replying for the sake of replying because that's how you end up with super generic replies that nowadays people wonder if it's an LLM writing it

Oh man I was just shitposting I wasn’t expecting a response. Please don’t feel like I was calling you out or anything.

Lmao you gotta do the shitpost/sarcasm tag "/s" text is notoriously difficult to tell if someone is just "playing around" or being serious the shorter it is

Especially because I actually run into that kind of mentality unironically fairly frequently

Indeed. And comments.
