@asklemmy What is up with people creating Communities and then not even posting a single post in them?
Like wouldn’t you want to be able to grow a community by doing a post here and there, even just a welcome post to say why you created the community would make sense wouldn’t it?
Yeah sadly I can’t easily take over these platforms that I’d love to keep alive without using an alt account.
Also I love answering the comments, it get’s hard to answer all of them if there’s 100+ comments and some ask the same 2 questions I’ve answered a few times previously.
You’re doing a good job in my opinion. I also try to reply to people. Because having a discussion was the reason why I posted in the first place. But I think it’s not necessary to reply to everyone. I just upvote comments that I don’t have a meaningful reply to, and that way people can see that I (or someone) appreciated them typing it out. I think that’s enough. And I don’t judge an OP by replying specifically to me. I just look if they at least added one or two comments to their discussion themselves. And if there’s votes to some of the comments. If that’s the case I think everything is fine.
(Though, I at least demand one vote for my comment if I give a correct answer or give a lengthy reply. Sadly that doesn’t always happen.)
