MODERATORS
 

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?

Was a lurker before I came to lemmy, trying to change that! I just don't think of things to say.

i'm usually a lurker because i usually don't have anything important to add to the discussion; i don't really want to leave a lot of empty/useless comments around

[–] Alkider@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Especially when there's a lot of comments repeating the same points. Like, sure you can add to it but there is only so much left to add after a certain point.

What are your interests though?

You find a place you lurk that you are also interested in and eventually there will be something for you to contribute even if it is sharing information that you previously saw and share with a new set of people.

I lead a mostly boring life. And the interesting parts would invade more privacy more than I care to expose. I'd love to post content. But I know better than to let too much of myself out. I already expose too much as is, but it can be worse. And nothing good comes from that.

I'm very much in the 1% I think

[–] chraqs@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This isn't the 1% rule I've heard of 😂

Do cat & beer pics = "creator"? That's me.

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