I know alot of lurkers like me out there are browsing, but there’s alot of engagement capitol on the federated instances. If you find an interesting topic and the right community, you get alot of feedback. There’s not alot of hate being thrown out there either.

I’ve posted 240 times to barely any discussion.

This post is a lie.

Looking at your posts, it seems like you’re really into ecology/farming/wildlife. I think Lemmy is currently seeing the biggest growth with its tech and tech-adjacent communities. Whether it’s because it’s a little more complex to use or because that’s just the demographic that knows about it more, I can’t say for sure.

It reminds me of the earlier days of Reddit (which I didn’t even participate in), when it was almost solely a programming/tech community. As it grew in users, so did the variety of communities. I think Lemmy is going to be similar.

I applaud you for building up the communities you’re a part of. I hope that you can look back in a few years and realize that you sowed the seeds for something that grew much bigger.

yep, not big enough user base for niche posts but hey the community is growing really fast, faster that I imagned
