It's so weird how Lemmy feels like old reddit and that was when I was more active but as reddit grew I began to lurk more except in four different communities. It's still hard to not lurk here. I frequently will type a comment or make a post and delete it, haha. Anybody else experiencing this?

Don't be afraid to ask questions if you need help. I've found that those get a lot of responses, since lot of people are eager to help or give recommendations. People aren't sure what to talk about, but if it's something they know then they can get chatty.

Those type of threads also ended up being the most useful back on reddit, since they'd be the type I'd see pop up in search engines when I was looking for a question myself.
