Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
Yeah I dunno, I’m not sure incentivising posting would be a good thing. I’d much prefer less, more thoughtful posts rather than incentivising short, low effort posts.
Yeah, agreed. Although I think there are a lot of people who just need a bit of coaxing to start posting/engaging a bit more. Being on Reddit (especially in recent years) trains you to be a consumer rather than a producer. People need to break that habit.
Yeah I think you’re right. I never was into UseNet, but I was heavy into internet forums at times and you didn’t visit just to browse, you went to chat, have discussions, help people. It’s a different mindset but I would like to think we can do that here.
I think voting on posts changes the environment from the forum style, it can make people more hesitant to post, but overall I would love if people visited with the intent to participate instead of passively consume.
