    Clarification question: Why would you expect somebody to DM you?

        That would be interesting here, but it would make a sociology dissertation (in a bad way) on Reddit.

        I think I behaved basically the same there and here, but the DMs I get here are all: the post we were discussing got removed, here’s the last thing I wanted to say. On Reddit, I got those, plus occasional death and doxxing threats, sometimes from a person who was pretending to have a civil conversation with me in a comments section at the same time they’re messaging me threats.

    To be frank I never felt the need to DM anyone here or on Reddit, I could live without this feature altogether

      I’ve found it useful in the rare case that I’ve posted some project and someone wants to use it and has a question or something after the main thread is locked. I’ve had a few people reach out just to thank me for solving their problem which is always nice.

    You awaken from your slumber, refreshed and ready to face the day. You had stayed the night at your childhood home, visiting family, and the artifacts from that era that had the night before cast a ghostly presence were now starting to feel much more familiar. Your phone, on the table beside your bed, starts to ring.

    Because you need to ask,

    Take an username like PM_Me_your_shit and you’d get some surprises :)
