I get a lot of upvotes but barely any contribution from my 1.7k followers

That do be how it is when this starts. Right now, if you're a power user, it's appealing to make a new community for something you want to post. To expand the breath of the content on lemmy.

But, hopefully, stuff will get consolidated over time, and the larger amount of communities will make lemmy more welcoming next time there's a wave of users.

ATM, I'm just posting at a steady pace that I feel I can maintain for the long haul, to keep the things I want to see on lemmy, alive.

Edit: Thanks for pretty_women in particular. It's a content type I don't post, but do love to see. You'll always get upvotes from me.
