On reddit I was a lurker that posted like once or twice a year, but ever since joining lemmy I’ve started posting multiple times a day.
Yeah, but I’m still doing it on purpose to help the community grow. Somebody’s gotta fill this place with content, and at the end of the day that’s our job.
Normally I’m more of a commenter exclusively unless I need the services of a specific community. (video game question usually) But the Lemmy project has sent me digging for all the best youtube stuff I’ve seen in basically the past decade and then finding the community to shove it in.
I am but I’m very quickly finding out I have nothing to contribute.
I’m the most boring human alive.
I’m trying. so. hard. to. Help!
I absolutely did, at least for commenting. Partly because I want to create traffic for Lemmy, and partly because it feels just… Nicer here. More genuine interaction, less quippy one liners or insults.
Same here, every post feels like I’m making a small contribution to a platform which I really want to succeed.
definitely find smaller sites like lemmy easier to post on since its much easier to repeat yourself on reddit and perhaps more modded so i refrain from saying a lot of stuff?
Just you. I comment the same amount I always have, omaybe slightly less.
It’s a bit ironic that I’ve seen this exact same post about three times already. Apparently you’re the only one posting stuff.
Or maybe I don’t know how Lemmy works.Default sort for posts is “active”.
So older threads show up on the front page, and because that’s what people see first, it’s what they comment on.
Which keeps the post on “active” for longer.
You may want to sort by “new” or “top hour”/“top 6 hours” to see newer posts.
More people doing that and engaging with newer posts means they’ll show up on the default “active” sort.
Well yeah I’m currently posting all oc things i made and posted on Reddit to contribute to Lenny so that people are encouraged to join
And i also got a few gigabytes of content I could repost, too.
