Like if i were to use lemmy almost everyday or post in community’s would that annoy people or is it ok? I had a reddit addiction very bad and im trying to replace it with lemmy…

Thoughts?

    There is no real constraint so long as you’re contributing.

    You can still annoy people even if you only ever post exactly one time.

    There is no “too active”. Participate genuinely in discourse, and don’t be a spambot or clickbait poster. I think that’s really all anyone wants, regardless of if it’s Lemmy or another service.

    As someone that’s been here a while, Lemmy a few years ago used to be a once-a-week thing because there wasn’t that much content. Now I have no problems using it multiple times a day and always see new stuff.

    So, engage at the level you’d like to, and know that your engagement is driving others to consume and participate also.

    A lot of the Lemmy posts I see are from a few very active posters, and more is always welcome as long as it’s interesting stuff. I’m one of those people that wants Lemmy to be 10x it’s current size though, there are definitely the other kind here but yeah in my opinion push for exponential growth any way you can if you have the energy for it.

    I don’t think there’s an upper limit as long as you’re posting cool stuff. I’m sure a mod will tell you if you’re pushing it (highly unlikely).

    Have you considered switching to something safer? Maybe heroin?

    if it’s you posting then it will be just fine. if it’s a bot posting then its too much and not organic and most people wont engage with a robot as people that hangout in new want to engage with OP.

    I’ve blocked a couple bots that post seemingly every article from specific sites. It’s too bad because some of those articles were worth reading, but it was too much in my home feed, so they’re gone.

    I just repost old memes I’ve saved over the years when I have the time and I’m at my PC. Post what you want!

    I think it depends a lot on the community and what you’re posting.

    But in general, you’re posting good quality, relevant content and not just spamming with every article you come across, engaging with people in the comments, not x-posting things to a bunch of different communities, and of course not being a dick, I don’t think there’s an issue.

    People sometimes get annoyed if its an overwheming amount posted at once, in one place but generally you’re fine. If you want a rough guideline, I’d say to keep it to three posts per community per day, unless its busy enough that you can blend in to the crowd.

    That said, unless its against the rules, you can also just ignore the people whining. Even downvotes don’t matter as much here as on Reddit.
