I was never much of a posting or comment person on Reddit, but I am trying for Lemmy. I refuse to go back to Reddit and I hope I can contribute to these communities. Let's do it folks!
That's ok. I've shitposted hours a day for years. Reddit was a tapestry, and we're slowly removing the best threads from Reddit's tapestry and reweaving them here.
Some more ideas:
- Cross-post content from Lemmy to Reddit: to get people from Reddit to Lemmy
- Cross-post content from Reddit to Lemmy: to get content in Lemmy
- /c/asklemmy is an easy way to add content. Answer a question or ask one.
- You can bring moderators from Reddit by handing them the sublemmies you created (in case you're not interested in moderating)
Your right right I was on reddit for eight years, and never commented once. This seems like a good reason to start.
Participate in discussions if you don't feel yet like posting new stuff, even small comments help building up a community.
Agreed. One of the biggest value-adds for forums is the back and forths that bring in more ideas and information than just what was in the posted link.
What subs would we post photos on?
Looks like there's Photography@lemmy.ml, Photography@lemmy.world, TravelPhotography@lemmy.world, and Photos@lemmy.world.
This probably isn't exhaustive, but it's a start!
Posting comments is also helpful.
Just started on Lemmy. I love how new things pop up but is there a way to not have things show up but not necessarily resort to blocking the community. Star Wars memes for my example.
This will be fixed in the 0.18 release
Should we just start reposting stuff from Reddit, too? Or is that frowned upon?
We're gonna need NSFW content to make this baby successful.
