    Commenting vs. Making (chiefofstuff.substack.com) 306 points by tosh 10 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 96 comments: jonas21 10 days ago. I agree with the premise that making is harder than commenting, and this can be frustrating. But I don't think that telling people not to comment is the right solution.
  2. First we had comment and commentary. Commentary means an extended set of comments vs. a comment which is just one thought. In use by the 1500s. From commentary we got commentator, one who writes a commentary. In use by the 1600s. Steadily declined through the 19th C, only to be revived in the mid 20th century for live commentary on a broadcast.

    Nov 4, 2024"make a comment" is also used more than "comment" when the comment is negative in some way, and can sometimes have a feeling of "deliberately doing it to cause some result" (such as making someone feel bad, etc). (These both mean pretty much the same thing) "He made a comment on that YouTube video." "He commented on that YouTube video."

    Making Comments, on the other hand, requires some empathy, perspective taking and has a more positive impact since it focuses on the other person. Good commenting is ultimately more about the other person than yourself. It serves the purpose of making the other person feel good, heard, understood, cared about or interested in.
