Sometimes I can't tell whether a question here is genuine and the author is interested in the answers, or whether they just copy-paste something to keep people busy. How am I supposed to approach that?

Hey Hendrik thanks for your comments! I like to make lemmy a nice place to hang out so I start threads. If you look at my post and comment history I do it a lot (I also have lazysoci.al and lemmyworld accounts). For this community I have a list of questions I add questions to when I think of them, the odd one I've got off reddit but I've NEVER copied one off lemmy for obvious reasons. I usually answer them, but sometimes if I'm short of time I don't.

Yes. Sorry, I didn't want to write down any names, so you were in the line. But I didn't mean you. I like your content. And you respond and engage a lot in the emerging discussions underneath. You're awesome ๐Ÿ˜Š And I can tell the questions and answers mean something to you. That's obvious. (And my comment is an opinion piece anyway. Maybe I'm wrong with all of this, that's why I asked.)
