I'm more motivated to participate when there's fewer comments. On Reddit I often refrained from commenting when I noticed the other commenters already covered the point I wanted to make.
Came here to say this.
Same here. Even subs (instances? communities? still figuring out the lingo, sorry) are so quiet I'm even posting actual posts. Or on news posts, I have a question about the content where on reddit someone will have already asked and I can just see what responses or vitriol they got.
In Reddit there usually already a comment saying what I think so I would rather just updot, hence I lurk less and comment more here.
I was above average active on reddit. I hope I can be the same here
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
