I agree. Never understood why it was seen as a bad thing to respond to older comments or posts. Especially if you have something useful or good to contribute like the person above did.
On message boards it would bump old threads to top, which can be annoying. On reddit it was generally more ok, but many still had the idea that after some amount of time the discussion is “done”. Lemmy has been pretty great in that regard.
Honestly I kinda like the vibe of genuine necroing going on here. Is it a few hours old? A few days? 3 years? Who cares?
