MODERATORS
Yes, lmao. To be fair, I do that frequently with other topics. When someone posts something general enough that I've already responded to it in-depth before, I usually fall back to previous responses of my own. I don't have time to actually hand-write in-depth responses for everything, but what I can do is spend effort on something I haven't seen before, and modify older comments to suit particularities and update the information if I've learned anything new or changed my stances.
I have a full-time job, a family, and hobbies, activist work, etc. to balance, so Lemmy is usually something I do when I have a few minutes of nothing else.
As an example, this comment is brand-new, while this comment is a modified version of an earlier effort-post I made.
