On reddit I was a lurker that posted like once or twice a year, but ever since joining lemmy I’ve started posting multiple times a day.

    Well actually (;D), that can happen here… unfortunately.

    But I get what you’re saying. Lemmy is still small enough that conversations are more about talking to another person rather than being a performative thing for everyone else in a large subreddit.

    Yesterday someone demanded me to give dates on when Global Warming would start causing increases in food prices and so I was on wikipedia and checking sources… and why an I doing this shit?

    So it still happens but it does seem less frequent here.

      Well actually, since the Lemmy’s userbase is exactly 34.7 times smaller than Reddit’s userbase. It’s fair to assume that the occurrence of being Well-Ackshually’d is directly proportional to (users migrating * wannabe know-it-all users / actually knows-what-they-are-talking-about users).
