Stop. Worrying. That. A. Post. Is. Old.

First step is to turn off your feedtimes in your settings. Do it.

Then comment on a post that is 2-3 days old. Or a year old. Or 2 years old.

Why?

1. It will be reinjected into people's feeds.

2. It will show up in chatter.

There are often posts that get reinvigorated. The only reason it doesn't happen more is because you are trained that comments old posts won't get read (or upvoted).

So, stop thinking like that! Why does an article that's a year old have less value than one posted today?
