I enjoy writing comments, but not so much making posts. Does this make me a "partial" lurker?

Some people make posts and other people make comments but there should be a balance between post and comments in the instance

I am bad at quality posts but better at comments. I'd say any way you can contribute is great. Communities require effort and reddit was as much about content from the comment section as it was the original posts.

My contributions are spamming upvotes and the occasional comment

Edit: I also occasionally indulge in downvoting posts / comments that have a lot of downvotes, even when I dont fully know what the conversation is about. Got a lot of downvotes? Have another

You can always repost quality content that you would like to share with the Lemmy community.

I personally don't think that only commenting is a bad thing. Sure posts would be "better" content, but discussion is also a major part of what I find entertaining
