I really enjoy rereading my past conversations, whether it's texts or comments here on Lemmy. I do it pretty much every day, and I just think about the different things that could have been said. I don't obsess over it, I basically treat it like another feed. When I get bored of Home and All, I go through my own profile.

Do you ever reread past conversations here or elsewhere? How often?

"Hey, people liked this"

This is definitely part of why I do it, call me conceited. I like looking back and seeing if my comment came across the way I wanted to, and votes can help determine that

It’s online, but it’s still a community. It’s cool to see something you wrote a few weeks ago went down nicely with people you interact with.

The same as having a conversation with the lady at our local post office can end with some laughs or something like that.
