1949

a.k.a. the 90โ€“9โ€“1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

I feel much more motivated to comment compared to post.

Lurker. By the time I want to post something it's already been said.

[-] dartos@reddthat.com 4 points 1 year ago

I used to post a lot of comments on Reddit, but never anywhere else.

I posted more on mastodon than anywhere else

[-] CosmicDetour@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I used to be a lurker. People can change.

Commenting a lot more here like I used to in forum days. Most of the threads I read I post in.

I tried to make a post yesterday but it stalled out.

The reason I comment more now is because I want to participate and I'm taking 'the internet' less seriously. This isn't real life.

I'm like 70/30 lurker to contributor I think, same deal as before I jumped ship.

I'm definitely making more of a concerted effort to interact at the minute, though, to help with numbers and so on.

I'd say I do a fair amount of lurking. I participated a lot more on Reddit, but I'm just trying to get a feel for the scene.

I mean think of Hollywood or sports. Most people don't do those things but they do consume it.

[-] Luxsidus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Since leaving Reddit definitely more participation. Even started some communities; a thing I never really cared for doing, but seems more appropriate and rewarding here!

[-] G234323@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

The rule is always true

I used to lurk. Still do, but used to too.

[-] StabsMcknzie@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Mostly Lurking as I try and learn the new space, as I get more comfortable I plan on engaging more with the community

[-] Myro@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Definitely more active than before. But still unlikely to create many posts.

[-] teh_bishop@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah I suck. And the content that I used to provide on Reddit that I thought was valuable to share was just nitpicked into oblivion. It really was a toxic place.

[-] miles@discuss.online 3 points 1 year ago

i'm sorry to hear that; have you found lemmy more friendly and welcoming?

I've never created a subreddit but created a magazine here! Scoping for content to help build our new home. I just figure that if you ditched reddit you're kinda obligated to pitch in on the new space, idk.

Even if you don't create a magazine, just share something interesting once in a while?

[-] Landrin201@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

OK, I won't lie, I hear this all the time but I'm not convinced it's true.

Are there any real statistics on it which account for bit accounts? Like, if reddit claimed that 99% of its users don't make content, my immediate thought would be "how many users are real people and how many are bots?"

Mainly a lurker. Hoping the regional sports game-day threads take off here cause that was the majority of my posting.
