Hi, my name is jim, and I’m a lurker…

I alternate. Sometimes a lurker, sometimes a creator and most of the time a participator. But I do find myself creating more posts while on the fediverse.

I'm definitely more of a lurker, but I'm trying to be active in commenting at least. As for posting, I just don't have much to post about tbh.

Does commenting count as creating content? I always thought of the posts as the content, but maybe I’m thinking about it wrong

I feel much more motivated to comment compared to post.

I'm still trying to figure out where I can post things

Contributor and participator, but struggling to find niche's

I'm a participator. I leave a comment every now and than. Maybe a post once a month or so.

I am the cat in this image.

Can you find the cat? Maybe circle the cat and re-up to a comment to help your Lemmie friends.

This sub stands out on Reddit for me, but I have no idea where it's content comes from. I actually found it via a Digg RSS link...

So I remain largely a lurker.

I think the 1% rule is true of large communities, but less so with small ones. It takes effort to find and join Lemmy, Mastodon and others, and use them, so only the most enthusiastic join at first. As it grows, the 1% rule will be even more apparent.

Do comments count? You're welcome.

I used to be a 99% lurker back during reddit era but I do comment on lemmy if that counts.

Yeah I suck. And the content that I used to provide on Reddit that I thought was valuable to share was just nitpicked into oblivion. It really was a toxic place.

I mean think of Hollywood or sports. Most people don't do those things but they do consume it.

I'd say I do a fair amount of lurking. I participated a lot more on Reddit, but I'm just trying to get a feel for the scene.

The rule is always true

I never post, but I do comment.

I try to contribute by honestly I just have nothing to say most of the time lol

I'm like 70/30 lurker to contributor I think, same deal as before I jumped ship.

I'm definitely making more of a concerted effort to interact at the minute, though, to help with numbers and so on.

Honestly, I wish the lemmy apps were more geared to allow people to lurk rather than having everyone sign up to view content. I'm a lurker who shares posts with people outside of lemmy.

I used to post a lot of comments on Reddit, but never anywhere else.

I posted more on mastodon than anywhere else
