Hi all,
I've fallen in deep hyperfocus with PB and while I've been here a whole minute and a half, there's something nagging me so I'll try to be brave and ask the question. (tried to find if this has been discussed many times over, please feel free to direct me to the right place.)
So I've been browsing here like the madwoman that I am, barely remembering to eat. My pov is coming from someone who loves reading and writing reviews. And I do totally get PB is far more than just that, and I'm thrilled about that.
When I browse reviews of books I barely see any likes, let alone comments. Two books I came across today had 20+reviews both and neither of them had a single like. Even for more established users. (for a newbie this is of course totally understandable, it all takes time). However I find this a bit of a shame because I have already read some absolutely gorgeous thoughtful reviews from say weeks ago with zero activity. Is it not a culture of here?
Then I checked the same books' Post page. Oooh, full of stuff! "I'm at 20%" gets lots of likes, quotes, quick updates.
So now, the aspiring detective that I am, get it. Because here we collect points, we get them more through Posts. Point value with Review and Post appears to be the same though 🤔
If you are still reading, you're a true reader I tell 'ya, here take my 5 points.
Please share any thoughts you might have on this? I'm an honorary member of the Confidently Incorrect Club, so I'm sure I've missed something.
If you like to write reviews, please also come and say hi.
Your friend, Lucy (today NOT crabby)
