Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn’t the thing that makes a social media site, it’s the engagement
So even if you’re used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!
If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they’re more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they’ll just go back to reddit
Someone will always phrase my thoughts better than me, or say it first, so I rather not.
That’s my point though! I felt the same way often on reddit, but on Lemmy, there are few enough people to where you’re much more likely to be the only person commenting with that particular take on things. So share your thoughts!
Maybe your thoughts will encourage someone to phrase it better or will trigger a brainstorm so don’t refrain yourself 👍
