If we comment even when we have nothing to say we end up with comments like 'this'

I don't lurk just to lurk, I just have nothing to say most of the time. Still waiting on the niche reddit communities I was a part of to make it here, if they ever do.

👀 if we just make content about saying that we should make content does it count as actual content?

I'm doing my part!

I'd also like to post more but worry that I'm being narcissistic...Not everyone likes my weirdly-tuned ukulele music.

I have been trying to upping my game from Liking to Commenting. Still didn't have Idea to post though, lol...

I'm not ready for this responsibility.

Let's face it. without shitposters and casuals a social network can't thrive. You need the chaotic energy it brings.

Woohoo... First comment :)

Let's also stop making self aware posts, and do memes and stuff. :)

Is there a way for people to express interest in new communities, and for people to help set them up and circulate when it's there?

I know it doesn't exactly seem hard, but it's enough of a barrier for someone who's already feeling hesitant.

Was a total lurker in reddit. No accounts, nothing. Just browsing the subreddits.

But I joined lemmy just to help the cause. And put up a good fight.

Yeah. I'm seeing myself using it more and more.

Hello everyone! I must say that it's a bit confusing and all, especially finding new communities. But it seems like it has lots of opportunity!

Reddit-lurker for 9 years. Starting off with a comment event before understanding how this thing works. The sky is the limit from here on!

I think we stand a chance of bringing over the best parts of reddit while leaving behind all the negative aspects, I think a lot of people who lurked before (myself included, <4000 karma after 10 years) will be much more willing to engage here.

I would post images first and foremost, but I've veen having troubles doing so. Maybe in a few hours I'll be able to post some OC memes or something of the sort

First I need to understand how all this works. fedia, lemmy, mastadon, fediverse, etc. I don't really understand what it all is and how it works. Suggestions from one user to another from a different "place" don't translate. Someone told me to look at /all. Like, where is that? I don't see anything like that. It's all a confusing, jumbled mess. It's melting my brain and I don't know if I can stick around. I don't see any kind of notifications either, so if someone responds to me, I probably won't see it unless I remember where I posted and to go manually check.
