Thank fuck, maybe I can go back to being a lurker lol
I've probably posted more here in just the last couple months than my entire decade+ years old Reddit account LMAO
I tend to lurk just because I have nothing to add to the conversation lol
If you at least upvote you aren't lurking as that counts as engagement.
I don't let that stop me.
Fellow lurker at heart here. Kinda heartwarming to see a bunch of lurkers doing things out of their comfort zone!
My app tells me I upvoted you 12 times in the last 10 days. Thank you
What app is that? Does it also show me other's up votes?
vger.app but you need to enable the feature in your settings. It will show next to their usernames
It's great! Let's me quickly see how I get along with or not. :D
As a fellow lurker, I sincerely thank you and everyone else that has been putting in the extra effort to post threads and comments!
Thank you for your service 🫡
Same here dude I've posted ridiculous amounts on !android@lemdro.id and did a highlight by highlight match thread on !cricket@lemmy.world once. That last one was painful af.
relatable. I started lemdro.id cause I wanted to lurk lol
Noice. Tbh I didn't post too much on /r/Android as I liked being a mod on it as I'm a huge Android nerd; I think people would have called mod abuse or something if they only saw my posts in the feed lol. People liked to be overtly critical of the modding anyway on that subreddit.
Same. On topics on than Romeposting(tm) I'd love to go back to being a lurker and only an occasional contributor. I imagine it'll be a while before that day comes, though.
Honestly thank you for your service Pug, there is a +75 next to your name for me for a reason
Same boat here
The same....boat???? BOAT????
BOATS BOATS BOATS
Thank you for doing your part in getting the ball rolling!
I recognize your name and appreciate your efforts, fam!
Yeah! I’ve been doing the same. I actually find myself thinking “I haven’t participated in a conversation in over a week. I better find something to comment on.”
Thank your for your service. 🙏 Building a community takes work. Let's hope this one is more resilient to corpo-lobotomize than Reddit, Digg and Slashdot.
Likewise
I've literally posted over 3k comments and over 300 posts since moving over here
I've been busy over here lol
lmao posting in communtities from my different accounts (not to the same communities, like alts for keeping notifcations on topics seperate) to help build up my future lurking places
Even though i have been much more active here than on reddit, i have way less karma
Every time i tried to calculate the percentage of how much less, it said something about dbzer0.com for some reason
Do I detect a divide by zero joke? Nice!
