The title, really.

On Reddit, I was one of the ubiquitous lurkers. I’d like to maybe participate a little more on Lemmy, now that I’m here. I might even like to start a community, but I’m concerned about what kind of a commitment I might be getting myself into. I really have quite enough BS in my life without inviting more.

I’d be grateful for any advice, experience, or warnings folks might have. Thanks, and have a good one!

Edit: Thanks everyone for your responses! Maybe I will try my hand at a community or two!

    Yes, if you create a community, you are responsible for helping it grow. This includes things like writing a useful sidebar and adding an icon image.

    The good news is, you can (and usually should) ask for help and recruit moderators to help you with this.
