I'm more motivated to participate when there's fewer comments. On Reddit I often refrained from commenting when I noticed the other commenters already covered the point I wanted to make.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Same here. Even subs (instances? communities? still figuring out the lingo, sorry) are so quiet I'm even posting actual posts. Or on news posts, I have a question about the content where on reddit someone will have already asked and I can just see what responses or vitriol they got.
Came here to say this.
-
A lot of lurkers from Reddit, myself included, actually don't lurk on Lemmy.
-
Lemmy will only improve if the lurkers stopped lurking.
In Reddit there usually already a comment saying what I think so I would rather just updot, hence I lurk less and comment more here.
I was above average active on reddit. I hope I can be the same here
