Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

Not lurking is such a hard habit to break. Especially with the way Reddit sorts comments, I'm so used to clicking into a thread to find some insightful discussion or hilarious joke that had already been made. But I'm trying my best, even by writing this comment!
