  • I understand why they do that. I wanted to do that too with the communities I’ve made. I noticed there wasn’t a community for me to visit here that I used to frequent on reddit, and made a community so that people could have a place to share.

    What sucks though, is that I’ve posted more than several times to each, gotten close to, or over a hundred users, and no one is contributing (on most of them). I didn’t make a community to hear myself speak. People need to realize that the thriving lemmy community as a whole isn’t “free”. The payment of it succeeding are their contributions, even if that’s upvoting, and leaving a “good share” comment.

    I was a huge lurker, and being a mod is absolutely not why I made it. In fact, once most of my communities grow large enough, I plan to hand them off. If they become actually substantial (think thousands) and no one is still posting, I’ll might just have make it to where only I can post links, and it’ll become like my personal community, since I’d be the only one posting anyways. That way moderation will at least be easy, because I hate moderating.

    Edit: Man I sounded like a salty dog writing this lol
