Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I have like five .odt files on my desktop that are three pages about a topic no one but me will ever care about. But once in a while someone will ask a question that is tangentially related and I will self-plagiarize a paragraph or two and feel like my time was not totally wasted.

It wouldn't be wasted even if you never shared anything about it! It's good practice and writing can give you a new perspective on a topic.
