Its so hard for me to believe that there are people out there for whom this will be an issue. Who are these people and what's wrong with them?

    My thoughts also... who the hell posts more than 50 times a day... well that's twitter isn't probably paid for with our tax dollars anyway.

    I consider myself quite active on Lemmy yet I still only average 12 comments and half a post per day. For all I know, Lemmy could have these same limits and I'd never even find out about it.
