In reply to the discussion: To recommend, or, not to recommend? [View all]3Hotdogs
(12,456 posts)25. Most of my recommendations are for a post that offers an action of something we can do, achieve,
prevent.
There are posts to which I will respond -- a meme, a joke, a negative comment about a maggot, Qanon or whatever. I will not recommend those because they lead to no action about the problem.
I will recommend a post about a fellow D.U.er who is having a bad day, a bad turn of events in their lives and such. And I will usually respond to those, if for nothing else, to offer encouragement or support.
