It's so weird how Lemmy feels like old reddit and that was when I was more active but as reddit grew I began to lurk more except in four different communities. It's still hard to not lurk here. I frequently will type a comment or make a post and delete it, haha. Anybody else experiencing this?

I constantly do the ‘type it out and delete’ move, both on Reddit and slightly getting there here. I’m just an anxious sort who’s thinking ‘surely no one wants to read this’ ¯\(ツ)/¯

Or that they'll vehemently reject what you say instead of helpfully explaining their perspective and why you might be wrong. That's always fun.

I'll have a big thing typed out and then think about if anyone would care. Usually I didn't think anyone would. So many discarded drafts.
