edit: shortened thoughts
If I get 50 up/downvotes then 500 people of all different walks of life read this, since only the distribution’s tails vote. If that’s 5-10% at each tail, then the 80-90% who thought the post or comment was mild have seen it and have not spoken.
If I leave it in the showerthoughts queue for ten days, then future people will see it too. Maybe they’re from a year away!
Idk. Just sonder
It feels eerily similar to leaving the house and never having a reason to actually talk to anyone (that’s also me living on the edge of Nowhere).
Slightly better chances here I guess. I’d say it feels more sparse here but I guess thinking back other platforms either had similar results or other issues.
