On reddit and now lemmy, I can engage with other people in both appreciation and discussion on and about things I don’t really get to otherwise, at a depth I don’t really get to otherwise.
Nicely worded. The microblog format never “clicked” for me the same way these threaded discussions do. Now I have a way to say why - thanks!
I think if I was born in a different decade I would have enjoyed Usenet or mailing lists.
