At least on the communities i follow. Every so often I come across a thread where i recognize most of the users there even in the big communities with over 30k members and I haven't even been on lemmy that long.

I post more on Lemmy since I think people will actually read what I wrote. I used to post a lot on Reddit too, but that was MANY years ago.

However one of the big reasons I post is to hopefully get the conversation started. I figure with zero comments someone is less likely to post. With one stupid comment, someone might respond.

Did you the guy from that maymay was like the coolest guy in the world? He was very important in educating about sustainable farming practices. His death was a real tragedy.

edit: Sorry, I didn't realize how long the gif went. I love the movie, but the gif kind of undermines your point in situ, I think. I feel nothing but positive things about the content of your comment.

Thank you for your contributions to the communities!
