Can u get sued for lying about someone over the internet ?

I wonder how many of you would get sued if we found out who was saying what on here. 🤭
Anyway. What do you think. Can you get sued for lying about someone on the internet.
Like just little petty lies. About character. 🤔

Slander is illegal regardless of how it's done but I don't think you can be sued for lying about someone when the situation isn't intended to cause damage to their life in some way (like getting them fired from work or something). But I'm not really an expert on the law.

@DunDunDun Of course.
