There was a former reddit mod on here a few days ago talking about how a small percentage of users make most of the posts/comments there. Personally, I’m glad to get away from that.
There may not be much content here, but at least the average person can be heard.
I’ve noticed this sentiment a lot over here! A lot of people that were lurkers back on Reddit have decided to join the conversation instead of just scrolling. It is nice!
It’s actually quite refreshing typing out a comment and not just erasing what I wrote right away like I would always do on Reddit. I always felt like there was hardly a point putting effort into comments on Reddit, unless I was on a more niche sub.
Totally.

I heard the rule of thumb with social media is 1/9/90. 1% are poster/content creators 9% are commenters 90% are lurkers
Just need to attract that 1% and the house of cards comes tumbling down.
Lurker on Reddit. Trying to be more outgoing here. Maybe those stats will change

I am one of them. I try to comment now on Lemmy especially when I see other people mention being Reddit lurkers.
It’s something small that means a lot when added together. One comment a day means you are an active user.

So other people had this experience? Happy to know I wasn’t alone and going crazy.
Exactly. Feels like my voice is actually heard here. I’m enjoying the smaller community for now 🙂
