If y'all could hurry up and be active so I can go back to lurking, that'd be great π

I'm doing my part π«‘

Anything is better than just lurking, though maybe the worst is "I wanna see more content that I like to see" comments from people with zero posts of their own.
Lurking doesnβt count as being active
Precisely my point
How about commenting?
Also good, people need to be engaging with posts to make this place thrive
I'm doing my part!
But honestly, I've been so pleasantly surprised with the level of activity on here. I've been seeing plenty of posts with upvotes in the thousands, comments in the hundreds.
critical mass
Doing my part, hello π
Over 80% of all the users on all platforms are lurkers. This wasn't the case back in the day, early 2000βs, because most people that wanted to share stuff and communicate were the ones that joined the early social media platforms and forums. Nowadays, this is kinda hard to achieve. Lurkers want content. Few people actually make content or share it, so it's up to those 15, 20% to generate the content for the lurkers.
Advice to all the lurkers. Start generating/sharing content yourselves. You've joined an undeveloped platform, everyone has to contribute to develop it.
That's definitely been the biggest shock from moving off reddit. Now I have to post the things I want to see instead of expecting others to do it for me.
I'll try and find something interesting. For now, hello everyone!
Good for you
But posting is so scary.
Casual shitlurker here, best I can do is shitcomment. Idk wtf to shitpost, but I'll try to think of something
You can't make me post!
Wait...
