    I guess “normies” was becoming too mainstream

  They are just commenting the same way they talk to their friends. People quote funny lines from movies right after watching or say stuff like, “Did you see that crazy stunt in the film?? He literally drove off a cliff!!” They get tons of upvotes too because people feel a connection by recounting and acknowledging what they collectively experienced. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

    So much of what’s wrong with online communication is that many people speak to a public audience like they’d speak to a friend in private

      You mean people getting offended because they misinterpret a friendly jab? Personally, I wish more people commented in a friendly manner. So many toxic comments out there 😬

      Why is that wrong?

    Accurate explanation, though it highlights the NPC / monkey brain level of these comments:

    1. Monke see comment

    2. Monke think same

    3. Dopamine released

    4. click like

    5. Monke happi

    Which of course happens similarly IRL, but it’s less cringe, as it’s just a passing verbal comment, not captured and displayed on the web for all eternity.

      That’s just empathy though? Putting yourself in someone else’s shoes and relating to what they thought at the time. You can infer a lot more than surface level description from someone repeating a specific line mentioned in a video.

  This is nothing. Wait until you hear high schoolers addressing “chat” irl while not connected to any kind of chat.

  • Sotuanduso@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Chat is this real?

    I saw people talking about that as being perhaps the first fourth-person pronoun. Pretty interesting idea.

    • PatMustard@feddit.uk ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Still third-prison though really

  • odium@programming.dev ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Nah, they were just talking to their friend, Chad. Right, chat?

    source
  • user224@lemmy.sdf.org ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    But “chatting” also refers to talking, no?
    Unless I misunderstood your comment. I tend to do that.

    • odium@programming.dev ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Twitch streamers usually address their live chat as “chat”. The person you are replying to heard high schoolers addressing chat, talking like they were streaming, even when they clearly weren’t.

• The_Tired_Horizon@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Or they repeat the exact same soundbite in the comments.

  source
• robocall@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Bro actually posted that 💀

• Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Go and look at the comments on a video of any pilot doing anything remotely interesting, and see how many comments mention the pilot’s balls.

  They’re not an original bunch.

  like it or not, those are the people who make text search against videos possible

  Who bro opps 💀

  source
• odium@programming.dev ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I think it’s a way to start a discussion thread on a specific section of a video.

  source
• Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Bro BTW

• don@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  A channer calling people in a video’s comments section NPCs. Peak irony, right there.
