We can make this a great interesting place and more people will join
Hey! I’m keeping this as it’s targeted at new users from Reddit. However, in future please find another community to post this on, because it is not related to the lemmy.world instance specifically.
So you were going to remove this extremely important message for Lemmy growth only because you think it is targeted towards Lemmy users? It is targeted toward lemmy.world and Lemmy users thats why I putted it there, the message is more important than just being wrong community. The message is important. It is the second most upvoted post for a reason
👀 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.
If we comment even when we have nothing to say we end up with comments like ‘this’
pretty much.
this
That
These
those
that
The other thing.
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!
I lurk therefore I am.
Was a total lurker in reddit. No accounts, nothing. Just browsing the subreddits.
But I joined lemmy just to help the cause. And put up a good fight.
Yeah. I’m seeing myself using it more and more.
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’m not ready for this responsibility.
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.
Let’s also stop making self aware posts, and do memes and stuff. :)
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!
I think we stand a chance of bringing over the best parts of reddit while leaving behind all the negative aspects, I think a lot of people who lurked before (myself included, <4000 karma after 10 years) will be much more willing to engage here.
It feels they way to me already. I think assholes are more likely to stay on reddit tbh. Lol
