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?

Edit: Btw since you're here: How do people who post a lot handle notifications or the comment section? Do you come back and engage at times, or are these posts more fire and forget? I genuinely don't know but I assume it'd be thousands of notifications if you had turned them on?

Piefed helps a lot with that. Usually I will read the first 10 or 20 comments, then disable notifications. At that time, usually the ball is already rolling, and other people will keep the conversation going.
