Are you doing your part? (lemmy.one)

I see many communities that got started in the last ten days. Sadly, some that I'm most interested in are not that active. Some are not active at all.

What are you doing to help your community? How do you go from lurking to contributing? Spreading the word?

Also, what's for breakfast?

Better start contributing yourself first :) We all flock to content and building a community takes time.

I started by posting into my favourite communities [email protected] and [email protected]. Starting to feel like it's getting traction now. I'm sure many checked the communities out and didn't stay because there was nothing to comment and no questions, and creating a post can be intimidating. Go for it!!

Breakfast: Air and water because I wake up too late to work every morning...

Hope you have an excellent lunch later. A rumbling tummy can be distracting.

I'm trying to contribute on the regular. One downside is the Jerboa app. It crashes when trying to add a community outside of it's search bar. I'd have subscribed to more except for that. I might find more stuff to participate in if that were not the case.

Thanks! I did and agreed!

And glad to hear you are active, sad about jerboa crashes :( I use lemmy as a PWA and it has been great, but still looking forward to a stable app. Let's hope development catches up!
