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
This is me not lurking
Much of the meme content is in the form of GIF and as fare as I see, Lemmy does not support uploading GIFs. Will this format be supported in the near future?
You can hyperlink to them, see my Rick and Morty gif a few comments above, i didnt upload that.
I’ll post my puppy everyone likes puppies.
Honestly, I feel more comfortable participating on Lemmy than I ever did on Reddit or Twitter.
We also need more mobile clients like this one
I won’t lie, if you look at my Reddit profile you’ll see that I’ve commented more here in the last couple of days than probably the last 3 years on Reddit. The community just feels more welcome and I feel as if my comment will get read instead of being drowned out as it happens on Reddit.
Made an account 22 hours ago, been lurking around here and there, finally decided to post my first comment after reading this post. I’d like to get more involved, just trying to find my footing first. Speaking of - what app(s) is everyone using? I’m on Android, and just logged into Jerboa. Decent UI, not a fan of the flashing screen during transitions. Any recommendations on other apps? Thanks.
