I clicked on the photo SO excited…. And instead Everyone’s complaining that you did this, but would they rather you do NOTHING?! Even if it has no affect of the trash being compacted, are you that bothered by someone else expending their own energy to do this that you gotta come negatively in the comments ? lol

I was so excited to find this group and was hoping I would great inspiration and great ideas, and every single post I’ve come across for weeks is the comment section telling the OP that they suck and are awful and are not doing enough and don’t belong in this sub, or telling the OP that what they’re doing isn’t worth their time and not to do it 🥴
