Yep. Lurker here. In the sense that I upvote but don’t post or create content. I am just not witty enough to make a joke or creative enough to write a long winded content. But I do what I do and I think it’s alright.
My first idea was "uh, interesting - why not do a poll for that?"
And then I noticed that would end up in some kind of lurker-paradox🤔
i dont want to lurk but english is not my native langage so my sentences looks weird when i dont use a translator
Just keep commenting, there are so many people here who aren't native English speakers. As long as it's somewhat understandable, it doesn't matter if you make mistakes. You'll get better over time.
The most important thing I learned on reddit is English. And the funny thing is, once you can write in English, you'll also be able to speak much better because you're not constantly looking for words.
It depends on the platform. For YouTube that's definitely true, but not for Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, Mastodon, Lemmy or Threads. If It's easier to create content for those platforms, users will create content for those platforms.
I don't think I have anything of value to post but I try to comment at least.
I'm almost always a lurker, but I feel like there's a difference when it comes to how participation occurs in fediverse communities versus the majority of mainstream social media platforms. It seems that many people here are genuinely interested in creating a space for quality discussion and healthy communities which motivates me to interact, whereas it's hard to feel like anything you come across is organically presented to you on platforms that are profit driven that aim to be as addicting as possible. All forms of social media have issues imo but this is it in one of the most accessible and least gameified, corpritizied forms
That's true. I posted more here in the last 2 months than on the other site in years.
The real lurkers don't even register.
I am an NPC and proud of it
I hope you have branching dialogue
I'm a lurker. Because idk what to say most of the time
Haha, same thing here. Also I think it's not necessary to write something that is already written in three other comments. So I just upvote.
The only 1% I will ever be a part of 😅
