      Same thing here: as much as I wouldn’t mind to post, I just don’t know what !!

        Find anything, really. Look at your interests and hobbies and share your experiences with those.

        I’m sharing photos I take in multiple communities: cats, aww, toads, birding, etc. I also periodically comment in the communities I’m subbed to so others have things to reply to.

        Be the change you want to see in your community.

      Yeah… You’re doing your part. Your part to the power of .05! HA!! GOT’EEEM!

      Hahahaha. But seriously, I get it. Finding good/great content isn’t that easy. But that’s one of the best things we can do as an instance collective. Commenting adds to the discussion and can also enrich the posted content as well.

    Where am I gonna post? One of the 12 meme communities that make up 99% of posts, or one of the 12,000 communities where the last post was four months ago and it had two comments, one of which was a bot summary?

      Are you complaining about the niche communities not having any activity, but not posting anything there yourself? I could’ve sworn i saw a meme about just such a thing, if only i could find it.

      But in all seriousness, most “dead” communities have many lurkers that are joined but not posting, so posting there isn’t necessarily a waste of time

        Exactly. Look at my post history for example. I’ve posted to some larger communities like Cats, but also to smaller ones like toads, mushrooms, and mycology to try to breathe life into them or to keep them alive.

        If you want to see more content in certain areas, be the change you want to see in the Lemmy.

      The fact is that if you arent into Linux, piracy, shitting on Elon or communism a lot of Lemmy is pretty shit.

      I was super active on Reddit in a lot of communities that are just straight up wastelands here.

      I personally am 99% of the posts in one of said niche communities. Plants won’t grow if you don’t put effort into growing them, why would communities?

    Maybe the default mode for new users should be top-6h. I’ve been using it for a while now and the flow of content is perfect.

    Sometimes I’m the only one posting in some smaller communities. I looked back one day and was like, shit those are all from me.

    I don’t post. I didn’t post on Reddit and I’m very likely not going to start posting now.

    I’m simply just not interested in making posts and won’t bother

    I’m going to keep posting this everywhere it’s relevant: if you downvote oc, you are discouraging more people from posting.
