Well they missed out of some amazing pictures of the park! I would sit on those benches the entire day reading and enjoying the beautiful flowers around me. I do admit, I click for the photos 😅, some posts don't even include text. But if someone took the time to type something why not read it? Even if you're more interested in the photos and comment on them, you can still read the text. That's why I don't like social media like Instagram, everything is just images, no one every communicates or interact with one another. Yeah, we won't always have something "big" to say, but informing someone of their great skills, or pointing out something you enjoyed about their post is something I value on the Hive. So thaks again for sharing this!
BTW the language is Afrikaans, all the way from South Africa. And no it's not Dutch, similar but I won't be able to have a complete easy flowing conversation with a Dutch speaker.

Well, the so called "comment farming" has been an issue here on Hive. People would leave a comment just for the sake of commenting and getting the upvote, often even without actually reading the post... Usually, it´s just annoying but sometimes, it can be extremely inappropriate. Some time ago, for example, I posted a long and quite elaborate post about a concentration camp in Poland where thousands of people were tortured and killed during the WWII. The post also included dozens of photos of the site that I purposely put in black and white to respect the tragic history of the place. As usually, however, I still got a few comments like "Wow, cool shots" or "Amazing place" from people obviously didn´t even bother to read the title or view the pictures... I was really close to start downvoting them for the blatant ignorance back then...
So Afrikaans it is! Cool, now I know a word in this language, thanks :)
Aah yes, I've seen some "wow, beautiful" comments on post. I feel like it's best just to ignore these type of comments. If they comment something like that, don't even upvote it. I currently hold Luv coin, and when I comment I give that along. I'm only able to do 3 a day, but I'f I know the author give comment upvotes I try to send the luv their way. The people on my favourite list are people I enjoy reading about, seeing their photographs, walking through a virtual museum, I think more people should treat hive as a interactive space.
I know a few weeks my partner made a post about the Boer War in South Africa. And some people only commented "this is amazing". He goes into a section speaking about the horrors that happened to the women and children, and to think people missed that little history lesson.
My friend tip: ignore those comments 😌. Don't bother upvoting them. I've seen a few people here just scrolling past them.
Enjoy your day!
Sorry to hear about your boyfriend´s experience, sounds exactly like mine with that concentration camp post... And no worries, I don´t upvote comments left by people who obviously didn´t bother to read the post ;) Have a nice day too! Greetings from Czechia to South Africa!
