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

      Different job, but same scenario. I hook things up to a machine, run it an hour, swap the next units in, repeat until done. Sometimes there’s other stuff to do, but the basic job is mostly waiting.

    Homeless, I just spend all day at the public library. Where do we go to to trade in all the upvotes for cash?

        That’s perfect, that’s where I communicate to people what the voices are telling me! I expect they’ll just start showering me with money when I begin the ritual ejaculation.

    The question has been eating at you for some time, not since some time.

    Also, I’ve wondered the exact same thing. I never recalled seeing such prolific cross community posters on reddit, but here it seems they’re all over the place.

    I’m a spy for Facebook and or the Russian/US government. Maybe something to do with China on the side too, not sure. In my free time I shill BP products to the children in my neighbourhood and have a passive income clubbing seals during my winter break. Due to a debilitating sense of laziness, I invite food delivery workers into my home and have my way with them in lieu of payment. At night I climb unto my roof to look at the star(s) whilst perching over the street and mutter to any night joggers about being vengeance incarnate. My interests include anime, dog-walking, and folding paper cranes.

    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.

      That sounds like an awesome gig for 99% of the time and an absolute bitch and a half the 1% of the time you’re needed.
