Best Lemmy comment so far
I also hate "happy cake day", and "this". Especially "this". It's a worthless comment that adds nothing more to the discussion than a simple upvote.

Trick to avoiding that is to never get gold. Took me 10 years to never get gold once. I'm good at what I don't do.
I always thought that was a sign it was astroturfed. Like my post? Give Reddit money!
