The participation seems way down recently. What did I miss?

    Mostly making sure I didn’t miss some new drama thing or whatnot. Usually those have peripheral observers that will speak up. Friday nights (SoCal) are kinda hit or miss anyways, but we’ve been trending down a good bit recently.

      What communities do you check that are more quiet now?

        I generally watch the total highest votes counts for top posts at 6, 12, and 24 hours to get an idea of the overall traffic patterns across all instances federated with dot world. I have several instance logins to help federate communities I create, but rarely use them. Sometimes I will use them to see if other instances have higher top post counts.

        I’m just off the beach as far south in OC as you can get. If I had bot skills I’d crank one out to make local work. I probably could figure it out, but don’t have the digital infra and footprint to make it and be sustainable. Given our scale here, we probably need to just use a Cali or PacCo.
