Yep. Lurker here. In the sense that I upvote but don’t post or create content. I am just not witty enough to make a joke or creative enough to write a long winded content. But I do what I do and I think it’s alright.
God, the rare few times i put any time and effort into making something it would just get shit on. Lol
I felt the same on reddit. So far lemmy seems more positive
Definitely a lurker. I rarely have anything I want to show off, and I like reading other people's opinions and content.
Depends on the community. I do comment more than I post.
I admit it: I'm a lurker 99% of the time. I do partake in the up- and downvoting though.
Consider the opposite. Every single person on the planet making 10 posts per day. It would be like Facebook on super meth.
I mean...creating stuff takes work. Even commenting is a lot harder than mindlessly scrolling memes. My head hurts now.
I'm primarily a lurker. I've been trying to be better about participating lately because I'd like to help the fediverse grow and be a meaningful online meeting place.
I have been posting and commenting a LOT more than I ever did on Reddit. Some small part of that is a desire to grow the platform and my communities.
Me too, keep it up 🤘
Time to contribute to a platform that I can believe in.
I'll start actually posting things when my favorite communities jump ship from Reddit. Until then I'll just lurk while occasionally commenting.
What are some of your favorite communities?

On Reddit I just made a few comments and posts, mostly a lurker.
Here it's completely different, I have my own magazine, where I put the effort of making a post daily, and it actually feels better than lurking.
