#LitsyLove

Amiable Which college do you work at? I used to work in public relations at a state university in CT. I loved working in an academic setting —hoping to get back to one again at some point. 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks #2 🤣🤣🤣 4y
JackOBotts @Amiable - I work at Rutgers University - New Brunswick (in Central NJ). I‘ve been there for about 12.5 years (which is wild to think about). Good luck making the move back to academia! 🤗 4y
JackOBotts @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It‘s so true!!!!!!! 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🐺 4y
UwannaPublishme I used to live in Spotswood, not too far from Rutgers. Exit 9 off the Turnpike. 😉 4y

I just refollowed several people who have returned to their Litsy feeds, so I thought I‘d say hello.

I tend to unfollow when people haven‘t posted for several months, especially if I don‘t really know them. Somehow I‘m still following hundreds of you!

Curious as to how many actually read posts and don‘t scroll by. Could you imagine 800 likes on every post? Oh, the pressure 😬

Anyway, hi, hello, and howdy, everyone! Happy Thursday!

Insightsintobooks Happy Thursday to you too 6y
Librarybelle I‘ve wondered that too! 6y
laurieluna Hello! It is a bit hard keeping track of everyone isn't it? 😥 6y

Kaye I‘ve been trying to do that myself. There are people in my followers list that haven‘t posted in months. I‘m trying to weed out and only follow the active posters. 6y
Cinfhen So true 6y
wanderinglynn 👋🏻 I do occasionally skim the posts without really reading them. But I do try most of the time to read the posts. 6y
Sarah83 I know what you mean. ☺️ 6y
Andrew65 Good points! We do see the same names liking our posts. It is a full time job keeping on top of posts! 😂 (edited) 6y
Daisey There are times I skim through now that I follow more people. I haven‘t unfollowed any because I figure if they are not filling up my feed it doesn‘t matter. I am slowly becoming a bit choosier about following based on content of posts. I often use hashtags to read posts with more focus. 6y
keys_on_fire I honestly don‘t like everything indiscriminately. I genuinely save the ‘like‘ for something I found enjoyable 6y
sprainedbrain I do the same thing... and then add people back when they start posting again. 😂 I like following lots of people, so that I have a lot of varied books on my feed. I go through at least once a day and I read them all... so I spend a lot of time here. 😳 6y
Ddzmini Hi I know what you mean 😝 6y
RebelReader If someone follows me I usually return the favor. I spend a ton of time on here too @sprainedbrain 😜 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage I‘ve been unfollowing people who haven‘t posted in over a year. But I still have a lot of posts in my feed every day. Sometimes I do like and scroll at the same time ... because I like that people are here, no matter whether the post really connects for me or not! 😄 6y
sprainedbrain @BarbaraTheBibliophage yes to that! Even if I don‘t like the book they are posting about, I certainly ‘like‘ that they are here and posting! 6y
tammysue A bit off subject, but I‘ve noticed I‘m missing all posts in my feed from litten‘s I‘m following that I always enjoyed seeing posts from. I‘m on here off and on every day. This started back when we had the changeover. Is anyone else having this problem? 6y
julesG @whatshesreadingnow Yes, I have noticed similar issues. 6y
SamanthaMarie I try to read everything. I've noticed that being focused on Litsy makes me less focused on Instagram which makes me a happier individual. So overall, I'm finding this is a better community. 6y
