And then somebody replied back saying, oh no, it's a great way to get to know people.

Every time I had a message, I would send like a little gif that said, good morning, everybody.
Just so you know, the Christmas fair's coming up.
Get your prizes in for the tombola, blah, blah, blah.
And all this kind of really, because I didn't really know how to operate.
And I thought, oh, well, I'll give too much rather than not enough.
I didn't apply for the second year.
It's when you just get the thumbs up replies and not even replies, just the little reaction emojis that you can attach to something.
And then there's fewer and fewer as the year goes on, as you realize everybody's muted the group.
And it's just horrendous.
Oh, I don't know.
Oh, I think a thumbs up like a reaction emoji actually is probably all right.
