I’ve noticed some usernames around Lemmy in almost all communities I follow that create several new posts daily and comment in almost all topics. I’m very curious, how do you have so much time on your hands?
This question’s been eating at me for some time, but I didn’t want to directly ask in any of the threads or message the users because I don’t to single anyone out, I’m just very curious. <3
I work in IT.
I don’t have a title per se, but I can say that I work with information security and vast amounts of data. I have ADHD so doing “mindless” things like quipping on Lemmy, sudoku and word search puzzles helps me think. It is also why I often comment with images. So I might be commenting or shitposting, but in the back of my head I am thinking about how to restructure a query so that it will return in seconds rather than minutes.
EDIT: It is also why most comments are edited. I comment now and return to spell/grammar check later (if at all).
I’ve averaged 4-5 comments a day since I made my account. Probably not who you’re asking about but I’ll bite.
I’m a SysAdmin/Systems Engineer- My work tends to be feast or famine in terms of how busy things get, and there’s often times where I just have to “babysit” a long running process or script. Also times where I just need to clear my head so I can approach a problem a different way.
I have a similar job, but I have been in the unfortunate position to be swamped with work for the past month or so.
I have had one task that needed babysitting in the past 3 weeks, and I was so busy that I was jumping between tasks at that point.
2 of my jobs are food service and the third one is retail.
Fucking kill me.
hundreds overall? You say several per day. I easily do that. Thats not even a lot. Now if you mean hundreds per day then woa. Anyway I am currently unemployed. EDITED - ok posts several a day and comments on everything. That is a lot. I read it wrong initially.
ITT: none of the power posters I was thinking of. Suspiciously silent now, eh?
Obviously nobody wants to brag about being a jobless nerd who posts on social media all day.
🤣 Abso_lutely_ none of the usual suspects have chimed in here.
Right? There are a handful of users that I’d expect here but don’t see
Hi it’s me
I push buttons on computers and wait for things to be done. Sometimes I have to look and find out why the button push didn’t do the thing.
In other words, IT.

Unemployed. I was a software dev, but it has been hard for me to get a job for last 1.5 years. It sucks. Currently, working to set up a small horticulture farm.
