I‘m a particilurker xD

I am mostly lurking because I need to take the time to better understand the visibility of voting and commenting. Not that I want to be a jerk and get away with it, I've just seen bits and pieces about how user actions are not as obfuscated as they were on reddit, and I want to understand what that means in practice

I'm a lurker naturally but I'm invested in growing the community here so I'm trying to post and comment like crazy

Honestly, I wish the lemmy apps were more geared to allow people to lurk rather than having everyone sign up to view content. I'm a lurker who shares posts with people outside of lemmy.

I'm definitely more of a lurker, but I'm trying to be active in commenting at least. As for posting, I just don't have much to post about tbh.

I'm trying to comment more but posting... lol I probably don't have that much to contribute.

I feel much more motivated to comment compared to post.

I think the 1% rule is true of large communities, but less so with small ones. It takes effort to find and join Lemmy, Mastodon and others, and use them, so only the most enthusiastic join at first. As it grows, the 1% rule will be even more apparent.

Do comments count? You're welcome.

According to the-federation.info, lemmy.world has 92k users, 25k of which were active in the past month. So, yeah, it doesn't hold true at the moment.

Contributor and participator, but struggling to find niche's

Yeah I got nothing interesting to contribute and very early do. I don't shut up with comments though and uplemmy frequently, so I can at least encourage others!

I participate where I feel I'll be of value in some way, lurk when something is interesting but I have nothing to add to the conversation and very rarely create

I'm a participator. I leave a comment every now and than. Maybe a post once a month or so.

Not yet and as the early adopters we should contribute as much as we can while at the same time being careful not to post low quality or repetitive things.

The platform will naturally mature if it is fit to do so.

Hi, my name is jim, and I’m a lurker…

I've been very post-y and very commentish since I got here. I did most of the posting in the sub I modded on reddit, and it's the same over here. I guess it would be fair to say I've been equally engaged on both platforms. (I'm only posting here now, tho.)

I tend to mostly just participate by adding comments. But occasionally a create a new post/thread. So I'd say that I'm personally 85% lurk, 14% comment, 1% create/post. I tend to post in more specialized/niche forums versus the big communities. Those have lots of content already.

I am the cat in this image.

Can you find the cat? Maybe circle the cat and re-up to a comment to help your Lemmie friends.

This sub stands out on Reddit for me, but I have no idea where it's content comes from. I actually found it via a Digg RSS link...

So I remain largely a lurker.

I alternate. Sometimes a lurker, sometimes a creator and most of the time a participator. But I do find myself creating more posts while on the fediverse.
