Former lurker checking in, trying to take this new start on Lemmy as a way to participate more and hopefully contribute a bit, I wonder how many will do the same coming from reddit.
This is what I love about Lemmy so far. I don’t open a thread and see the amount of comments that make me not want to add another comment. If I see thousands of comments, I’ll assume my joke or point has already been made and just lurk.
Here, I feel like I can contribute and make these comments

I am! Mostly lurked because by the time I got to threads they were already too popular and were flooded with hundreds of comments.

Same here, I like the Fediverse, so I try to contribute to it. With reddit it was more of a convenience and mindless thing
Me too. And in nuking ten years of reddit history I realised I had stopped posting over the years as it got so big it just wasn’t needed
I definitely am. Not a huge talker but I’m really trying to do my part here. It also helps that this community just feels a lot more welcoming.
I’m with you there, it’s certainly worth it to try and post and comment more and ther is a much more relaxed positive vibe here.
