Go out of your way to give people positive feedback.

When someone makes you laugh or learn, tell them.

It's easy to assume they know, but they really might not.

One of my problems with my real-world friends and semi-online friends is that I'm viewed as cold and distant. Kind of on the spectrum, one might say.

I incorrectly assume that since I like their stuff, they must know I like their stuff, which isn't always the case. Instead they're more like, "wtf is Lyn thinking?" In other words, I'm semi-retarded at personal interactions. I'd like more people to know how much I like what they do.

Online or offline, whenever it's comfortable, tell people they're doing good work. Say hi. Tell them thanks. Give gratitude.

Nostr does this better than Twitter, from my experience. Keep it up, lads and lasses.
