a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

So what is considered lurking? Commenting once in a blue moon or just not commenting anything whatsoever?

You'd still be classified as a lurker if you comment and post rarely.

Guess I'll never be more than a lurker then. Even though I feel more comfortable with posting or commenting here so it'll happen more than on reddit

It's easier to get involved on smaller communities about stuff that interest you than big, generic communities. I hope now that lemmy is starting to grow more and more, we'll see more of the former.
