Why do you lurk?

I used to be a lurker when on Reddit. I'd post here and there but mostly just kept to myself. It was because something as large as Reddit felt like shouting into the void.

On Lemmy, the communities are small, and so are the instances. Is it lack of something to say, anxiety, or you're a bot? What's up!

I find myself being way more active on Lemmy & Mastodon than on Reddit & Twitter.

The communities I used a ton on reddit simply aren't here. All I see is nerf stuff. I was active in /r/Maritime /r/Military /r/Guns and /r/GunAccessoriesForSale

There are some related communities here but they’re not nearly as busy. Less people are on Lemmy now.

I did a quick search on https://browse.feddit.de/ and found these:

For sure a lot less active. You could start one if you think you could grow it. It depends on what you’re looking to get from it and if anyone is providing it yet.
