I hear "No problem" far more often.

Am I the only one who remembers "My pleasure" ?

[–] fruitycoder@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

It depends on how I feel. 90% of the time I don't want sone one to feel obligated so no problem is my response. When its truely a favor I am helping with its your welcome. When i would have done it for my own sake I want to say "my pleasure" but mostly say "of course!".

That's all I still use nowadays, I thought the others fell out of use.

[–] sparr@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Yes. It's been disappearing since before I was born in the 80s, and is mostly gone now.

You're welcome comes off as passive aggressive. I was forced for years to say you're welcome when I never really meant it, but when I say no problem or no worries I actually mean it so I still use you're welcome but I might as well be saying go fuck yourself

What happened to "You're welcome!" as a response to "Thank You"? It's not even included the one canned answers on an apple watch. Have we as a society abandoned it? I hear “No problem” far more often.

I've used both equally. "Thank you!" when I'm more appreciative about what was gifted/helped, and "No problem" when I just wish to be courteous and acknowledge, or I'm indifferent to, the aid that was given me.
