Reading comments in different communities, I noticed that users hardly leave smilies. Why is that?

    The average lifespan of a thread on Reddit/Lemmy style discussion boards is about 18-24 hours. If factored in a lot of international participants across polar timezones, it can go upto 30-36 hours atmost. That is a very fast exchange of messages when the comments start piling up.

    Slow exchange of messages is not what you are having here. A slow digital exchange would be something like email.
