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

Understandable, but you should just get one thing: this is like Reddit, a lot of people don't even read OPs name, so you can mess up as many times as you want and learn from it pretty safely.

Thank you for the advice. I'll start to think on this way!
