My office has automatic faucets in the bathroom and I've started sticking my hands under the faucet at home and wondering for a second where the water is. in c/[email protected]

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this issue. Automatic hand dryers are even worse. Those Dyson V-shaped ones NEVER turn on for me no matter what kind of hand dance I try to perform for it.

I work in HR too. My last company (startup) I was bascially the HR and IT department combined and it royally sucked. Also a rif refugee!

Same here. I was surprised how sad/bittersweet it felt to stop using reddit. Like parting ways with an old friend. I check back occasionally, and it's been pretty reassuring to see how much lemmy's content quality and quantity has increased, just as much as reddit's has decreased, since July.

I think OP is counting commenting as being a "participator". I pretty much followed the 90-9-1 rule with my 11 year reddit account (90% lurk, 9% comment, 1% post) and likely will do the same here. I was always very diligent up/downvoting things based on value and reporting violations at reddit though, which I think gets calculated into their engagement metrics, unlike at Lemmy if I am not mistaken.
