a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

    I mean…creating stuff takes work. Even commenting is a lot harder than mindlessly scrolling memes. My head hurts now.

    I have been posting and commenting a LOT more than I ever did on Reddit. Some small part of that is a desire to grow the platform and my communities.

    I’ll start actually posting things when my favorite communities jump ship from Reddit. Until then I’ll just lurk while occasionally commenting.

    Definitely a lurker. I rarely have anything I want to show off, and I like reading other people’s opinions and content.

    Consider the opposite. Every single person on the planet making 10 posts per day. It would be like Facebook on super meth.

      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.

    I’m primarily a lurker. I’ve been trying to be better about participating lately because I’d like to help the fediverse grow and be a meaningful online meeting place.
