Definitely, don't feel nearly as self conscious about posting with less activity

Almost any thread i opened within the first few posts someone already said what i would have said, so i would just scroll until i found my confirmation bias, updoot and move on. i wonder if lemmy will get so massive that the problem comes here.

Already posted several comments. In my 10 years of reddit, I posted perhaps 10 times. So im way above my average on lemmy until now. I try to be more active to attract more lemmings.

Haha, yep

Ooh I'm tryin

I'm going to make an active effort to post stuff here, I used to just be a commenter on Reddit, time to branch out and try interacting with this place more. Should be fun.

Yes. I want to contribute to Lenny’s success if I can 😀

Just created this account, let's see.

I would have commented 4 times in last many years on reddit. On Lemmy (across instances) I have already posted over 40 in the last few weeks.

Same Literally never posted on Reddit in my decade of lurking. Lemmy is more welcoming and 'charming' IMO

Just joined lemmy last night. (Now it's morning where I am from). Already commented 3-4 times. On reddit I used to comment once probably in a couple of weeks. It's probably because it's something very new and interesting. Also I am finding that people around seem nicer in a way maybe?

I'm trying to be a more avid poster but the gateway errors are making it difficult.

I’ve always been a comment contributor. I just do it here instead of that old alien site. Also wiped my stuff over there.

For sure not just you. I noticed my first day too - especially on SDF, which is a much smaller instance. Somehow it feels more like being at a small party compared to being on a crowded subway.

I'm doing my part!

Yeah I started posting here too

Smaller communities, more intimate experiences, and overall, the people you'd see here are most likely who won't accept or allow what Reddit now stands for.

Oh man tell me about it. I have been commenting on posts that I find interesting all the time here. In Reddit, I was a lurker with maybe a few uploads and upvote/downvote per year. There’s something about lemmy, I guess it’s the potential to be a true community that excites me

Absolutely

I am defenitely more active here when posting, but, looking at my reddit-account it becomes clear I was an active commenter before I left.

The interactions feel more authentic here. Sometimes I would read a single comment chain where multiple people were talking about separate subjects and somehow still having a conversation. It made my head hurt.
