We can make this a great interesting place and more people will join
If we comment even when we have nothing to say we end up with comments like ‘this’
this
That
These
those
that
The other thing.
pretty much.
👀 if we just make content about saying that we should make content does it count as actual content?
I don’t lurk just to lurk, I just have nothing to say most of the time. Still waiting on the niche reddit communities I was a part of to make it here, if they ever do.
Be the change you want to see! In one week I’ve made more comments on here than the last two years on Reddit. If the communities you want don’t exist, start them up and post the type of content you’d like to see.
Same here! Though, I’m also a chronic upvoter, so I hope that makes up for it.
Upvoting is also important to make the best content appear on top
Upvoting isn’t working for me. I click it, watch it change, then after about 2 seconds the upvote goes away.
I have been trying to upping my game from Liking to Commenting. Still didn’t have Idea to post though, lol…
I lurked reddit for years before I made my first comment. Some of the larger subreddits still feel so hostile I rarely posted on them. Enjoying the feel of this place though.
Yeah I feel this place has more of a community vibe than reddit.
I’d also like to post more but worry that I’m being narcissistic…Not everyone likes my weirdly-tuned ukulele music.
I’m doing my part!
Let’s face it. without shitposters and casuals a social network can’t thrive. You need the chaotic energy it brings.
First I need to understand how all this works. fedia, lemmy, mastadon, fediverse, etc. I don’t really understand what it all is and how it works. Suggestions from one user to another from a different “place” don’t translate. Someone told me to look at /all. Like, where is that? I don’t see anything like that. It’s all a confusing, jumbled mess. It’s melting my brain and I don’t know if I can stick around. I don’t see any kind of notifications either, so if someone responds to me, I probably won’t see it unless I remember where I posted and to go manually check.
I was looking for a reddit alternative that was similar to how mastodon works and found lemmy. I don’t like mastodon very much, but I thought the mastodon concept works much better when you have smaller communities decentralized over multiple instances. Kind of like all those bb-forums back in the day, but through a single interface/client.
So naturally, I do like Lemmy but it still kind of has the same problems I have with Mastodon. I want to go into detail in a full post at a later time, but in general it comes down to the user experience not being great. I have quite a lot of ideas for improvements
I was mostly a lurker at reddit, but I’ll definitely try to be more active here, especially in this early phase of migrating away from reddit
Alright, I usually lurk, but I started off here by creating a community of my favorite game.
We need accessibility first, honestly the site is kinda confusing and acts weirdly on mobile and the official app is the same, both of these two need to use simple design, the android app is focusing on material you theme but most of the people here I believe the want usability rather than asthetic, I know it’s free and hard work that I’m criticising, but we simple users need to build and make the communities better while the developers working on the site and the accessibilities, together we will break the chain of proprietary.
Time for this to go back to the top.
It would be good if an admin pinned a message like this but temporary, like 1 month
Reddit-lurker for 9 years. Starting off with a comment event before understanding how this thing works. The sky is the limit from here on!
