It helps when you realize that a vast majority of Reddit’s content was already reposted from somewhere else.
Good catch! This is something I’ve never seen the"reddit report" complainers process adequately or offer a counterpoint to.
you could be active and encouraging other people with making good comments
I am trying to build a (relatively fringe) community but I feel bad about reposting stuff, so I don’t. On the other hand it’s really hard making up new memes all the time and I end up trashing most ideas because they just feel very forced.
This is exactly where I’m struggling too. I recently got really into Planet Zoo and love seeing other people’s creations. But Reddit is a pain to go to, and the official forums are just people endlessly listing different animals, they’re completely pointless. So I want to make a Planet Zoo community here, but I’m also horrible at making stuff. So I try to find other people’s creations but Reddit is a pain to go to…and it’s just an endless cycle.
I might have been part of the problem on Reddit, just scrolling day after day letting everyone do the work. Can’t do that here…and I don’t mind being the ahole who steals it anymore. We can build this better, but it’ll take some time and effort. (and a alot of shit posting)
You got this lil bub.
Think of all the upvotes you’re getting! Maybe somewhere in the future you can cash those in for real money
but would reddit crypto not be way more practical :p
Same.
I think reposts from reddit could be really beneficial for lemmy , cause part what made reddit great was that it was basically a content libary, that had the answers to a lot of questions and in turn drove people to the side. On lemmy we still have to build that libary
Different perspective: “I am the content!”
“I’m not stuck in here with you, you’re stuck in here with me(mes)!”
