The type of thing where someone in a general school chat promotes something like the nft collection they are minting and you want to passively aggresivelly respond

Yeah, concern trolling is great for this. “Oh my god, Jennifer’s account has been hacked by some bot selling essential oils! Someone should call her up and tell her so she can change her password.”

I’m so glad I didn’t have to grow up with “a general school chat.” Sounds like a fucking nightmare.

Well it’s a society discord, but there is like 700 people on it and they just posted in general

That’s…odd.

But then again smart phones weren’t a thing when I was in school so most of this kinda stuff seems odd to me. I’m with the other guy, I’m glad I never had to deal with any nonsense resembling this.

Yeah 100%. School was hard enough pre-social media.

I can’t fathom how anyone would enjoy being on a Discord server with more than a few dozen active users, and even then, more than a dozen or so active users at any given time. Above a certain threshold it just becomes noise.

Unless 97% of them never speak. Which, in my experience, is totally plausible.

Still. Weird way to do socials with schoolmates, imo. I would have expected students to self-select into smaller friend groups on Discord or TikTok or WhatsApp or Snapchat or whatever the hell people use now. Not coalesce into one giant digital town square. Not knockin’ it, though. Seems like a neat idea.

97% do never speak, they’re just here to get informations on upcoming events
