Commenting counts as creating content right? If so, I'll be glad to continue as a serial commenter and rare poster :')

I tend to lurk mostly, but I've posted here and there when its called for
The last days i was more of a lurker because i have a lot of stuff to do. But when i have more time i plan to visit a lost place that i could not find with searches. I only found that because two of my friends ignored each other. I think at some time they did it for fun but it really annoyed me.
Except that i cant find anything about it it is not very interesting. More like 3 old floors and a room where they meet. The floors are not even in different directions.
Is there a way we can measure this? I’m genuinely curious what the numbers are.
I would have thought there’s a disproportionately larger number of creators here than other sites as I feel like it’s the creators that were more impacted by Reddit’s api changes than the lurkers… but seeing all the “I’m a lurker” comments in this thread makes me question that hypothesis.
The TAHP 1% of lemmy users post 99% of the content. This is not right, nor is it fair!
Lurker
Mostly lurker and sometimes participator.
I used to almost never post on reddit, but on here I have been posting OC content, commenting and I have even created a community (https://lemmy.world/c/cancer)
I'm part of the 10%.
Someone make a Unreal Engine lemstance and I'll shit post everyday about blueprints being the future of programming and how nanite still doesn't work with translucent materials
If your home instance allows community creation you could set one up yourself.
Also, if drag-and-drop really was the future of programming we'd all have switched to Scratch years ago. Visual and no/low-code programming has been around almost as long as traditional code-based software development
Upvoting lurker.
I think because it's a rather new platform for many people, they behave differently. Some are getting used to Lemmy and are not posting as much, while some are more enthusiastic.
Overall I'd say it will be pretty much the same in the long run
I don't post a whole lot but I do comment regularly.
