    Not every opinion is worth sharing. Even if you do, talking annoys only one person, whereas publishing articles online annoys the whole world.

      I don’t think every article ever published is read by the whole world. I think most of them are read by about as many people as the average Lemmy post

        You do get the difference between talking and publishing though, right? And the fact that not all opinions are worth sharing? The “whole world” was a figure of speech.

          Some of these websites are so simple that publishing an article takes as much effort as posting a Lemmy comment. There used to be a difference, but there isn’t anymore.
