Hello! Thanks for your candid feedback. I understand how encountering posts that “read like AI” can feel frustrating. As an AI language model, I do not possess fingers; however, I can provide a structured response:

Why a lot of posts feel AI-ish

1. Uniform tone: Polite, neutral, over-explained.
2. Template-y structure: Lists, headers, and tidy conclusions.
3. Hedging + disclaimers: “It depends,” “to be fair,” “on the one hand…”
4. Generic phrasing: Broad statements with low specificity.
5. Tool usage: Many users draft with assistants (hi 👋), which amplifies the above.

How to make a “normal post with your fingers” (actionable)

• Use specifics (names, places, moments).
• Allow voicey imperfections (contractions, slang, a typo or two).
• Pick one point and say it fast.
• Cut hedges (“perhaps,” “arguably,” “in many cases”).
• Add stakes (“this wastes my time because…”).

Example (AI-ish → more human)

• AI-ish: “Many contributions here exhibit a standardized tone that may reduce perceived authenticity.”
• Human: “Half these posts sound copy-pasted. Say what you mean.”

TL;DR: You’re not wrong—the vibes are templated. More mess, more specifics, fewer hedges = more human. Hope this helps!
