Looks at it. There’s something wrong with it. He just doesn’t know what.
Erases it. Starts over.
*Still doesn’t feel right *
Hits cancel, discards the comment, and goes back to doom scrolling.

- ..... Nice.

I'm an introvert, leave me alone.

But .. but what if someone downvotes me?
- Nothing makes me feel more powerful than getting downvoted and not caring while having a bunch of people who clearly care a lot about votes tell me I should care about downvotes.
  Go ahead and downvote me, it literally doesn’t matter.

I’m doing my part by flooding Lemmy with opossum and bat pics. Maybe an occasional raccoon if the mood is right.

I'm doing my part!

It's ok to be a lurker. Lurkers, I'm happy you're here with us.
- And we're here for you.
  
  Hey this user isn’t a lurker!! They’re a big fat phony!!!

its hard when i get most of my content here.

Does actively commenting but never posting count as lurking?

I'll do better!

But I like being a lurker 😟
- Too late, lurkers don't comment!
- I still remember this epic comment from @cm0002@lemmy.world. It's funny because cm0002 is like one of the most active posters I see around.
  
  Why do I too remember that post and the comment, huh, I might be spending a lot of time here

I've been busy!

No, I only come here when I poo.
- Can't you talk while pooing?
  
  Some people, even presidents, poo and talk at the same time! Every time they open their mouths!

But Lurkers are great at defending from enemy infantry in StarCraft.
- I'm glad someone else thinks of the zerg when lurkers are discussed.

Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla.
No seriously, it's actually fun to comment on random things. Often the next day when I wake up I have a bunch of fun responses in my inbox.

I lurke, I smirk, I work, but not twerk, does that make me a jerk?
- It’s one perk.

lurk lurk lurk hehehehehe try to stop me b

Lemmy is far and away the most active I've ever been on social media, then I see a three month old account with 2K comments and suddenly feel like a lurker.
- Some of us comment and some of us post. You're a poster.

I do as I please

- cute, gecko? lizard? what species?
  
  Looks like a fire salamander to me. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_salamander
  
  Clearly a Lurch (outdated German term for amphibians).

Just posted some meme. Happy?!

Sorry <3

Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.

Im not! I furiously type my thoughts on every post I can to let my opinions be known to the community!

Are my almost daily cat pictures not enough for you?!
- Subscribe

I feel like I already post too much lol. But that might be an artifact from my autism which always makes me feel like I'm not good enough or have nothing worthwile to contribute.
- Same here, except from Anxiety. Maybe this is just being human?

Ok then, have this comment.
- 🔫 Give me another one right now
  
  You have no power over me.

But why?

Sorry, I lurk. Sorry.

Screaming into the void can be therapeutic.

Lurky is the adjective form of lurking, i like saying lurky it tickels my mouth wires. So ill continue being lurky.

I'm a loomer not a lurker.

Sure when you ask like this, how could we resist?

This post might get ratio'd

Are you sure about that?

I'm try 😞

Lurk on Deez nuts 🥜🌰

I'm a poster on Mbin, it'll have to do.

Don't tell me what to do old man

Too bad that when you are strong worded against a particular set of netizens, your comments get deleted by the moderator teams or whatever it is called here on Lemmy.
Reddit and Lemmy, two peas in a pod.
- I'm sure I won't find anything out of place in the modlog then?
  
  Go ahead.
- It really depends on the instance. For example, I am to the point of blocking politics on .world because they take a "both sides are the same" approach to moderation.
  Most of my deleted comments and bans come from there.
  
  !politics@sh.itjust.works can be an alternative
- Call them out on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
  Modlogs are public for a reason
  Edit: also, your own moderation history isn't the best looking: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/modlog?userId=3895205
- This is the post that got me banned from ten forward. A year earlier I warned another person to not argue with the mod because they will ban you. I made the mistake of not looking at the username before replying.
  
  Lemmy is actually worse than Reddit.
