Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Well, first and foremost, break the barrier of lurking and start posting. I still have yet to do that because I feel like I don’t have a lot to post other than cute pics of my dog lol. Lemmy isn’t reddit so it’s not going to be as hostile. It’s still the internet though so expect a little pushback every now and then.
Comment more on posts and try to keep in mind that each comment is like having a real face-to-face conversation with other users. This community is pleasant and I feel very at peace interacting here compared to the other site. This is the first time I’m commenting so much on posts too and it’s been a blast!
but honestly same feeling here of not knowing what to post
Cute animals are an easy start! Maybe asking for some food recommendations or even just posting something you’ve made. The possibilities are endless! It’s not a popularity contest anyway. People will see it and go ”hmmm” and maybe drop a comment. As long as you’re within the community and BeeHaw’s rules, you’ll be fine c:
I asked a question in one of the food threads(?) Forums(?) Lemmy instances(?) About ingredients about a type of food I can only get when I drive several hours away. I felt like it was received and answered without the memes and better-than-you tonality, which I felt was just nice and welcoming.
Do you have opinions tho
This is key. Comment, interact, that's contributing even if you're not creating post.
Ah, thanks for the advice! I'll try to be more active!
