Now I'm sure that the number of users is lower than a few months ago, but I wonder how many people are just lurking, never commenting/ posting.
Honestly I love the Lemmy. I do check in every day, but I don’t often comment or post, I’ll admit it.
Then again I never really posted on Reddit either.
I tried Mastodon, I actively did, and I still lurk from time to time—logically it makes the most sense for me to use professionally—but there’s something I don’t just like about it. Probably that simply it isn’t my platform of choice—or maybe it is that I would technically need to use it professionally to replace FB and IG.
There’s so much social media fatigue. I just want to relax and goof around, doing it respectfully of course.
Probably a lot, lurking is how I use both platforms. There's the 90-9-1% rule for a reason
Also, I imagine a lot of people created profiles on more than one instance while making the transition and then abandoned the others.
I originally started on lemmy.world but now just use fedit.uk...
Pretty heavy lurker here. Maybe I need to start doing my part and raise those numbers
I sometimes have a twinge of guilt about it too. When I was younger and had more free time, I would spend time on actual submissions and not just comment. But I'm too old and tired for that shit these days.
