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?

I'm trying my hardest. I've never created a sub but now I'm creating communities, making add-ons and trying to post. Freedom here of corporate interests is awfully nice. The fediverse is expanding but we're already seeing contracting due to the influx in early June... we definitely had community sprawl. However that was expected. Many communities are doing great! It's great to see!!!

Same, I historically am mostly a commentor, I posted very rarely on Reddit, and realistically every community I wanted was already built on Reddit.

Here I'm trying to build some communities up that didn't exist with I got here. I don't particularly love being a moderator, it hasn't been so bad on here so far, but I could definitely see wanting to hand off moderation responsibilities or at least add to the "team" as some of my communities get bigger (just based on my history with being a moderator, I hate to be the bad guy).
