Does anyone else have the impulse to want to be the best version of yourself online, sometimes? Even if anonymous? More generous, accepting, warm, less argumentative, more constructive?
Not for reputation afaik, at least not consciously, but just to make everything a bit better? I don't always get this impulse (no saint here) but I have felt that.
Since so much discourse is about how the internet brings out one's dark side, I thought I would mention the opposite.
@faassen Oh absolutely! I assume (at least for me) it is, because I want to inspire others to do the same.
It's the same in the real world:
When you witness someone else helping another person, you are more likely to help another person that day. So everyone wins! Isn't that beautiful!?🥰
