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

    Never rly participated when I was on reddit, but the fact that we must now participate to make lemmy a thing makes the community awesome I think and much more welcoming than on reddit and thus that’s a huge incentive to post, comment and participate IMO
