Lack of discussion on beehaw (and lemmy) (self.support)

First off, I want to say that I love what the people here are doing but I do have a problem. There is never any conversation about posts. There are tons and tons of links shared but most of the time they're just articles that someone found interesting. I never see any true, meaningful discussion the way I do on reddit. Does anyone else have a problem with this or am I just shouting at the clouds? Is there anything we can do about it?

After lurking on reddit for years, without even having an account, it's hard to break the habit and start commenting. I agree that there are not many discussions right now, but that is likely due to the smaller number of users.

But I will try to engage more on posts, because I also want this community to be interesting and alive :)

Truth be told, I never even considered posting links to something - the lurking mindset is still pretty strong.
