RE: Unpopular Opinion...
With my new job, I've not had much time to write (or read) but the morning train does see me skim through people's posts.
My motivation is always that of social connection. Some content provokes discussion that is interesting to me, others gets an "approval" (a vote) but the vast majority gets a stroll on by most of the time.
Your words made me reflect on the old world of blogs and the like. The author is the attraction the cake, if you will, and the commentators come to take their slice and discuss the cake.
We each bake our cakes. Some consume more than they bake. Others just want people to gather around their own campfire.
Sorry for the strange analogies, it's the best I can do at 6am on a moving train :p
Too busy to hang out in Discord anymore too huh? :) That's a good way of putting it. Especially with blogs like mine where I talk a lot about my life. I am kind of putting myself out there. I understand I can be a lot to take though! I also think the point someone else made about not everyone having the time to sit and comment is a good one.
