Commenting Back
How often do you comment back on another person's post when they link back to you? If I am in my commenting game--which I will say is me about 98% of the time. If someone links their post back in a comment, I will always go back and comment on theirs whether I follow them or not. It's just what I do! Lol. If they don't link back, it's harder because I don't know if they participated in the meme or not. And if they didn't, it's a little harder to return a similar comment.
I guess another question is, what makes you comment back on another person's post? Do you need to follow them? Do they need to have a certain comment box function? I still debate constantly over switching to Disqus and I think I will...at some point. It's just when I have the free time, I find myself doing other things, like watching recorded shows or Disney+ or reading because I am SO behind! Lol.
The times I find myself not able to comment back are when I have to run time consuming errands after work. That when I get home a few hours later than normal, I just don't have the energy to comment back. And since I have to be at work super early, I wake up super early to leave super early, which generally means I need to get to bed fairly early so I can attempt to get a good night's sleep.
I know other bloggers talk about struggling to comment back and that they try to schedule a time to do all that. And they do! I can't tell you the amount of times I get a floodback of comments on old posts. It's nice to see that. Nice to know that other people are still reading my posts and visiting my blog. I've been struggling to keep things going what with the life changes and all. And I know that when I do find a new job it will be some of the same schedule like thing going on. But hopefully I'll be able to sneak in reading time more if I was on a different schedule that doesn't have me driving forever back and forth to work and home.
How often do you comment back on posts? Mostly memes or discussion posts like this? Review comments are likely ones that don't get comment replies back, usually! Granted if I saw something that required a response I'd comment back, though with my commenting system it's a matter if their email is set to receive replies and whatnot. Hence why I really, really need to install Disqus. I might just do that in the new year...and if all previous comments get erased because of it, so be it. I don't have the tech savvy to save them or figure out how to bring them back. That's 10+ years of comments...I don't think I have the energy for that! Lol.
So yes, back to my original question: how often do you reply back to comments on your posts? Or comment back on the memes you participate in?
